Would I be able to claim out of state boyfriend as a dependent.?

Question

I m in NY state and he s in MS. I ve been finacially supporting him long distant. He s been unemployed for a year now.

Answer 1

No. Because he is not your dependent. He isn't even a member of your family. Your dependent is generally your minor child or your legally disabled adult child who cannot work. Personally, you are foolish to support a boyfriend. He's using you. Tell him that he is "cut off" and has one week to get a job and start repaying you, and you will see how quickly he dumps you.

Answer 2

does not matter where he lives, you cannot claim him on your tax returns

Answer 3

absolutely not

Answer 4

No

Answer 5

you could not claim him even if he lived WITH you, check the legal definition of a dependent = child or relative https://www.google.com/search?q=irs+depe...

Answer 6

You need to dump him.

Answer 7

Nope.

An unrelated person must live with you for the entire year to qualify as your dependent (In addition to other requirements).
