BulldogTom Posted March 19, 2013 Report Posted March 19, 2013 Dumb Question, because I have never had to do one of these, so please be gentle with me. Two daughters took care of their father. They paid over half of his support out of what is mostly jointly owned property for the daughters (inherited from mother and left in joint accounts). One Daughter makes more than the other so will claim the exemption credit for the father. My question is: do I put the taxpayer on the form 2120 in the Eligible Person Section. I have the sister in there and it seems like this is all I need, but then I went and read the instructions and it says to list every person who contributed more than 10% of the qualifying relative's support. The taxpayer did that, but the father is on the return, so isn't it self explanitory? Tom Hollister, CA Quote
