Yardley CPA Posted March 22, 2016 Report Posted March 22, 2016 Good morning, ATX Community. I just want to verify that my understanding is correct. New client has taken grandson as her dependent for many years. On January 1, 2015 the grandson passed away. It's my understanding that the client can still take grandson as dependent on her 2015 return and that I should indicated he lived with her for 12 months. Is my understanding correct? Thank you.

Pacun Posted March 22, 2016 Report Posted March 22, 2016 Correct. As a matter of fact, whoever was next to his bed that day (for the hours he lived in 2015) can take the dependency for 12 months provided they are blood related. 1 Quote
