Question

Tax Year Prior to 2020: Can this be explained in more similar terms? please.

i recently submitted a question into the customer support. i asked if my boyfriend could claim me and my son as dependents on his 1099 taxes. i received a response that stated "The person can't be his qualifying child"... what exactly is this saying?

In your case, child support received does not count as income.
