Sorry for your loss. So it sounds like you used Mom's money to pay her expenses. You do not say that any money from you went into that account. You are asking if you can claim her as a dependent when her expenses were paid with her own money. Or you want the tax deduction for paying the expenses? Or do you mean you are filing a tax return for your mother's estate? Or that you are filing Mom's final tax return? What are you trying to do?
I think you should be seeking paid professional tax help for this one.
