Claiming non-custodial dependents on taxes
My 5 year old daughter and I live with my boyfriend and have so since June of last year. I have full custody of her and we have just had a baby 2 weeks ago. During my pregnancy last year there were a few months where I was unable to work and when I did finally find a suitable job for my condition I didn't make very much money. I am wondering if my boyfriend can claim my daughter on his taxes since he supported us for the most of last year (even when we didn't live together). Also, her biological father is completely uninvolved and has no legal rights to her- if it makes any difference.
