Is there a way to go back on your taxes and check the answer to a question that was asked about if a dependant receives more than half their support from you?

You can go back to My Info and click their name and go back through the screens to see what you said.

If you have not yet filed, this question is in the My Info section of the federal return beginning on the page Your children and others you support

If it is filed already, how to you look back?  I am unable to find a My Info location.

Are you able to view the tax return at Tax Home?  Click Download/print return (PDF) at the bottom of the screen.

 

The dependents will be listed about halfway down IRS form 1040.

 

In the software, a dependent who is a qualifying relative has been reported as 'You provide more than half of the total support for the year'.

 

The tests for a qualifying relative are:

 

  • Qualifying Child: They are not the “qualifying child” of another taxpayer or your “qualifying child.”
  • Gross Income: The dependent being claimed earns less than $4,400 in 2022.
  • Total Support: You provide more than half of the total support for the year.
  • Member of Household or Relationship: The person (a friend, girlfriend, non-blood relative) must live with you all year as a member of your household or be related to you.
