Hello. If someone claims your child and did not give all of her money, what should that person do?

Please explain.  Who claimed your child?  Why did you not claim your own child?  What happened?

In particular, what do you mean by "did not give all of her money"?

Did you let somebody claim your child or did they do it on their own? 

 

A child can be the “qualifying child” dependent of any close relative in the household. If you live with someone else, e.g. your parents, that is allowed; but the full rules must still be met.
