You don't say how old he is, whether or not he's a full time student, and how much money he made total for the year.

If he is under 19, or under 24 and a full-time student, AND he didn't provide over half of his own support, AND he lived with you over half the year, AND neither of his parents lived with him over half the year, then you can probably claim him as a qualifying child.

If he doesn't meet the above rules, you can claim him as a qualifying relative IF his gross income was under $3400 for the year AND you provided over half of his support.

Otherwise, no you can't claim him.

if his income was under 3500 dollars and you supported him for 6+ months of the year.

if he made over this amount he needs to claim himself on his own taxes.

How old is he? You need to review the IRS publications to see what qualifies as a "dependent." If you can "claim him," then he can't claim himself on his return.

for one - you have have to prove you provide more than 50% of his support - Is he paying you any rent or room & board?

Maybe

How old is he and how much did he make all year?
