Thinking about claiming a child who isn’t legally yours—like a grandchild, niece, nephew, sibling, or even your own child?
🛑Know the law before you file🛑
The IRS is cracking down, especially on people claiming dependents who don’t actually qualify. Thanks to updated AI technology, they can now automatically verify parent-child relationships on many returns.
If you’re planning to claim a child that isn’t biologically yours, whether you’re a mother, father, grandparent, sibling, or family member; you must be sure they meet all the requirements:
✅ The child must have lived with you for more than 6 months during the tax year
✅ You need proof; like school records, daycare records, a lease, or medical paperwork
✅ If you’re filing as Head of Household, you must also prove that you paid over 50% of the household costs.
Even if your refund gets approved, you can still be AUDITED afterward and forced to REPAY that money.
Some of y’all have said “they live with me” or “I help take care of them” when tax time comes around—but this isn’t the year to lie to your tax pro or play guessing games with your return.
