Claiming dependent

[justinguysinger]

My address is the same as my girlfriend,she made no income and I provided for her all year,but I have stayed in PA for work for past five months,sending her money that I can show on my cash app history, I didn't change address on i.d and am going back home just staying and working in PA at the time. Can I still claim her as a dependent?

Yes, if:

• your permanent address was the same as hers all year
• you were only temporarily absent for work
• she has no income, and 
• you are continuing to support her, she doesn't provide over half of her own support, and no one else supports her,

you can continue to claim her as a dependent. You would be able to report the Credit for Other Dependents on your tax return.
