If your BF lived with you for the entire year in 2025 and had less than $5200 of income---not including any Social Security -- then you may be able to claim him as a qualifying relative dependent and get the non-refundable $500 credit for other dependents.

WHAT IS THE CREDIT FOR OTHER DEPENDENTS?

There is nothing else through the income tax system to "pay" you for taking care of your boyfriend.
