@cpatikakes as long as you privided more than 50% of her financial support and she earned less than  $5200, you can claim her.  There is no residency test for a Qualified Relative. so it doesn't matter if she lived with you at all. 

 

I assume she was over 18 years old as of 12/31/25 and was not in school in 2025.
