Disabled Depedent Sister qualification
Hello,
I am going through the questions about whether my disabled sister qualifies as a dependent.
My sister is NOT a student.
She is not married.
She is disabled.
she lived with my the entire year.
It was all in the U.S.
She did NOT pay for more than half of her support (I paid for more than half).
No relatives of my sister lived with me during the year, therefore no one else helped with her support.
It now says my sister qualifies as a dependent.
My question is, why didn't the software ask if she made more the $4300 in taxable income? She received more than $4300 in Social security disability income from the government, which is taxable. Does that not matter in this case, because she is disabled? I don't understand why the software didn't ask that question.
