Partial year Dependent

Jenni B — Mon, 09 Mar 2026 11:07:05 GMT

My uncle passed away in May of last year. He had provided support and claimed his sister as his dependent for many years. In preparing his final return - do I claim her as a dependent on his 2021 return? I'm guessing not, since he didn't support her for more than half the year? Thank you

sorry for your loss. to be a qualifying relative, your uncle would have had to supply over 1/2of her support for the year 2021. this can be for any period in 2021
