Can i claim my boyfriend's child who lives with me and i support?

Yes, but only if the child:

  •  Is not the “qualifying child” of another taxpayer (your boyfriend or child's mother)  
  •  Earns less than $4,050 in 2016
  •  Receives more than half of his total support from you
  •  Lived with you all year as a member of your household
