Hi! My boyfriend is currently a dependant of his parents and receives va loans every month because of this. If we were to get married is there a way he would be able to still be a dependant of his parents in order to get these benefits?
You'll need to sign in or create an account to connect with an expert.
To be able to continue be claimed as a dependent you both would have to file married separately unless if filing jointly you are only filing to get back tax withheld.
A person who is married and filing a separate return can still be claimed as a dependent by their parents for tax year 2024 if they live with the parents, the parents provide over half of their support, and the dependent doesn't have income of over $5,050 unless they are a full-time student under age 24. See this TurboTax tips article for more information.
You may wish to contact the US Department of Veterans Affairs to determine the benefits for which your partner qualifies and if they are affected by changing marital status. See this VA webpage for more information.
