Will I get a refund for including my domestic partner as my dependent? No one else can claim her, she has no income, I support her 100%. Will I?

I am filing an amended return to include my partner. Why does Turbo Tax say I will not get a refund for her though she qualifies as my dependent 100%?

No, you do not get a refund.    You can get a non-refundable $500 credit for other dependents if you claim a person who lived with you the whole year if they had less than $4700 of income not counting Social Security.

 

IRS interview to help determine who can be claimed:
