Does a child need to be born to be claimed on tax return?

alighier

Yes. So, if you're due around new year, cross your fingers for a December baby!

mrslititia

Yes. To claim a child you must have the social security number and you can't get that until after the child is born,

EvilAngel

Yes because they must have a social security number which isn't assigned until birth

downtownJbrown

yes

mark_daspit@ameritech.net

Yes, so schedule that C-Section for Dec. 31st. Otherwise, if you have the "New Years Baby" you'll actually get stuck paying taxes on all the freebies you receive.

Kid Wykkid

yes

Yes. Once the child is born, you must apply for a Social Security card for him or her in order to claim them.

Lane

yes, but medical expenses related to the child could be deducted

dodlydink

Yes-the IRS won't even consider a tax break on someone unless they have a legal birthdate!

Judy1

Yes, the child needs to be born before midnight on December 31 to be claimed for the year.

butterflykisses427

Yes because you have to put your child's social security number down on the form. If the child is not born than you have no ss# to put down.

LOLO W

Yes, because you actually have to have a ssn for the child in in order to claim the child.

GD-Fan

Yes because then anyone could say they were pregnant, get the tax break and then say they lost the baby

Firespider

Yes, and they must have a social security number also. If this wasn't true, then we could all have hundreds of little tax exemptions.

spicertax

You can always induce the birth of your new tax deduction.

Oorah Wife

yes
they have to be born before Jan 1st before you can claim them on your taxes
if you have a lot of medical bills though, you can claim those.

Congratulations though~

Cameron L

Well, abortion isn't murder yet, so yes.

wish I were

DUHH! If it isn't born it does not exist! So NO you cannot claim a non existing person on your taxes!!
