My girlfriend and I live together she doesn't work but I do. She depends on me for the money I make so we can have food and drinks etc. Will she be considered a dependant

Yes, she may be your dependent and you may claim her if she meets the "Tests To Be a Qualifying Relative":

A dependent doesn't always have to be your child. Dependents come in all shapes, sizes and relationships. If all of the statements below are true, you can claim them as a dependent.

• Relationship: The person lives in your home for the entire year and is considered to be a member of your household. If they don't live with you, they need to be related to you.

• Income: Generally, their income is less than $4,050 (not including Social Security and welfare).

• Support: Generally, you provide more than half the person's support.

• Marital status: Generally, a dependent can't do their taxes with a spouse (married filing jointly). They also can't be a dependent on someone else's return.

• Nationality: The person is a United States citizen; or a resident or national of the U.S., Canada or Mexico.

Still not sure? We'll ask you questions in TurboTax to help you figure out who you can claim as a dependent.

Thank you very much. I was worried that I couldn't add her as a dependent. Since I added her as one originally on my W2. I m glad I asked or else I would have to pay back. 🙂

That's great! Thank you for using TurboTax. We really appreciate it!
