I have legal guardianship of my grandson and he lives with me and I care for all his needs. Should I claim him as my child or as other?

Choose Another Person, then choose Grandchild.   You can claim a child, as a dependent on your 2024 taxes as long as they meet the following requirements:

Qualifying child:

• They're related to you.
• They aren't claimed as a dependent by someone else.
• They're a US citizen, resident alien, national, or a Canadian or Mexican resident.
• They aren’t filing a joint return with their spouse.
• They're under the age of 19 (or 24 for full-time students).
  • There's no age limit for permanently and totally disabled children.
• They lived with you for more than half the year (exceptions apply).
• They didn't provide more than half of their own support for the year.
