I am single and claiming an adult who is single and collects social security (SS) because disable via doctors diagnoses. No federal withholding in SS, he made less than 1544 in other income with federal withholding. He is not a relative but lived all year in my home. I paid more than 1/2 of living expenses. Problem finding this dependent option in Turbo Tax, had to pick as if a relative. Problem once I enter his info, turbo tax says " Ernie Qualified You for a tax Break" BUT my federal return amount drops over two hundred dollars. Is Turbo Tax acting correctly? Something seems wrong!
