How much will my boyfriend receive for claiming me as a dependant? He made a little over $25,000.00.?

To others replying to this question: You *can* claim someone not related to you as a dependent if they meet all the requirements: They must not be able to be claimed as a dependent on anyone else's taxes, they must have lived as part of your household for the entire year, they must have no income above a certain very minimal amount, and you must have paid more than half of their support for the year.

Your boyfriend will not "receive" anything for claiming you as a dependent, but he will be able to subtract you as an exemption from his total income, so his Adjusted Gross Income (the amount he pays taxes on) will be lower.

I didnt think a boyfriend could claim you


Curious
gosh, I hate to rain on your parade but aren't dependants supposed to be related to their keepers (or legal wards)?

If he is eligible to claim you at all, he'd probably save around $500.


Guillo
I thought that was illegal.

Your boyfriend can't claim you as a dependent, it's illegal. If you live together though you can file "Married Filing Jointly", as long as your state recognizes common law marriages.


just me
If he can claim you he would receive 3.400 off of his gross income, which would reduce his taxable income. How much he gets back depends on his taxable income and how much taxes he paid and if he receives any refundable credits.

He can claim you as a qualifying relative if he can't be claimed as a dependent and,
You lived with him all year
You are not the qualifying child of another taxpayer
He provided over half of your support
You did not have over 3,400 of earned income


know it all

It will reduce the amount of tax that he owes.
