My fiance is disabled and we live together with our 3 children, can I claim him as a dependant?

I pay for more than half of all living expenses.

You can claim him as a dependent if he meets the following requirements:

Qualifying relative

• They don't have to be related to you.
• They aren't claimed as a dependent by someone else.
• They are a U.S. citizen, resident alien, national, or a Canadian or Mexican resident.
• They aren’t filing a joint return with their spouse.
• They lived with you the entire year or they were related to you.
• They made less than $4,200 in 2019.
• You provided more than half of their financial support.
