For your s/o, you can claim her only if:
1. She lived with you all year.
2. She had less than $3,300 in gross income for the year.
3. Your relationship does not violate local law. An anti-cohabitation statute, even if unenforced, is a bar to claiming her as a dependent.
4. You provided more than 50% of her support for the entire year.
You can claim your child if the other parent does not, as long as she lived with you for more than half the year and you provided more than half of her support. You may also be able to file HoH based upon your child's dependency status. If your income is within the EITC guidelines, you can claim that as well.

You may not be able to claim her.
She must have lived with you all year, had income under $3300 and your relationship must not violate local law.

Only if you provided more than half the support for your significant other. If she made more than a certain amount (around $8k, I think) you can't claim her.
