I have a son who's earnings are over $4,050 but still lives at home and i provide over half of his living expenses how would i put him on my tax file?

You do not mention whether your son is under age 19, or under age 24 and a full-time student. If he is, his income would not matter. From the phrasing of your question, I suspect he is not. So, he would no longer be a "qualifying child" for purposes of being your dependent. He could only continue to be your dependent under the "qualifying relative" rule.

Generally, you can claim your "qualifying relative" as a dependent if:

• The relative is a U.S. citizen, a U.S. national, a resident alien, or a resident of Canada or Mexico;
• The relative lived with you all year;
• The relative had gross income of less than $4,050.00 in 2016;
• You provide over half of their support; and
• No one else provided over half of the relative’s support.

As you can see, under this rule, your son's gross income would disqualify him from being your dependent.
