I will be claiming my fiancé as a dependent on my taxes this year. She has unpaid student loans. Will my tax refund be effected due to her unpaid debt?

She has lived with me all of 2016, I paid for all of her living expenses, and she did not have an income due to staying at home with our son.

No, her debts don't attach to you by claiming her as a dependent.

Still have questions?
