I normally carry my neice and she had a baby. I have been helping her with him since he was born. Her mother called child services on her and the baby was removed. should i still try to carru the child on my taxes or not?

Check the IRS web site. I don't know if it has changed but it used to be if you supported them for 6 months or more than you could claim them.

Yes you can. If you supported the child financially at least 6 months out of the year with at least 50% of their finances he is yours to claim.
