So on my 2020 tax return do I claim her as Foster or Adopted? Does the IRS want to know as of Dec 31, 2020 what she is or for most of the year? We have had her for 3 years.</P><P>Mikel</P> Tue, 09 Mar 2021 20:37:47 GMT mfulk 2021-03-09T20:37:47Z https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/tax-credits-deductions/discussion/foster-or-adopted/01/2053476#M193280 <P>We adopted our daughter on Nov 13, 2020.
