Tax dependents \u2014 like children or certain relatives \u2014 can help you qualify for various tax benefits, ultimately reducing the amount of tax you owe. But what you might not realize, is how a dependent\u2019s income could impact your ability to claim them as a dependent. So, if you have dependents in your life, it&#8217;s time to discover how they can work their magic and put more money back in your pocket this tax season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-who-can-i-claim-as-a-dependent-income-and-government-assistance-considerations\">\u201cWho can I claim as a dependent?\u201d Income and government assistance considerations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re wondering <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hrblock.com\/tax-center\/filing\/dependents\/irs-rules-to-claim-a-dependent\/\">who qualifies as a dependent<\/a> and if you can claim a dependent with income, there are clear-cut rules to consider. Here\u2019s the short answer: The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) will usually let you claim your child if they work or earn an income, no matter the dependent\u2019s income source, if certain requirements are met.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, many taxpayers wonder if claiming dependents that receive government assistance is permitted by the IRS. The answer is \u201cyes.\u201d Even if your dependent is on Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP benefits) or claims Social Security Supplemental Security Income (SSI), Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) including Pass-through Child Support, or other government income benefits, you can still claim them on your income tax return. What you might not know are the requisites involved in claiming a dependent with income. We\u2019ll outline the specifics next!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-are-there-income-thresholds-for-dependents\">\u201cAre there income thresholds for dependents?\u201d<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re questioning, \u201cWhat if my dependent has income?\u201d there are additional IRS rules to consider. While the income source doesn\u2019t matter, there are other income considerations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>For qualifying dependents who are not a qualifying child (called \u201cqualifying relatives\u201d in tax law), the person\u2019s gross income for the 2023 tax year must be below $4,700 (for 2023).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>For qualifying relatives, they must get more than half of their financial support from you.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>For qualifying children, they can\u2019t have provided more than half of their own financial support throughout a tax year.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Essentially, it\u2019s not about how much income a qualifying child or qualifying relative has, but how much of their income they use for support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-create-block-hrb-single-override-cta\" class=\"wp-block-create-block-hrb-single-override-cta\" style=\"background-color:#005d1f\"><div class=\"hrb-single-override-cta--image\" style=\"background-image:url(&quot;https:\/\/www.hrblock.com\/tax-center\/wp-content\/themes\/hrb_tic\/img\/on-laptop-at-desk-graphic.png&quot;);background-size:contain;background-position:center;background-repeat:no-repeat\"><\/div><div class=\"hrb-single-override-cta--copy #ffffff\"><h3 class=\"main-heading\">File with H&amp;R Block to get your max refund<\/h3><div class=\"quick-links-list\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hrblock.com\/online-tax-filing\/\">File online<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hrblock.com\/tax-offices\/?app_method=GENERAL_TAX_PREP_METHOD\">File with a tax pro<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-additional-requirements\">Additional requirements<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to the above income and support tests, dependents must also meet the following requirements:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-for-all-dependents\">For all dependents:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Your qualifying dependent must not use Married Filing Jointly to file their tax return, unless they\u2019re only filing to claim a refund of income taxes withheld.

However, even if they don\u2019t have a filing requirement but their employer withholds taxes from their paycheck, they may be eligible for a tax refund.

The answer is \u201cyes,\u201d but your child must first meet all of the eligibility requirements to be claimed as your qualifying child this tax year. (We referenced them earlier in this post!) In addition, they must be under 17 and have a Social Security number. If they meet these requirements, their work status or income likely won&#8217;t affect their eligibility to be claimed as a qualifying child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-navigating-dependent-income-taxes\">Navigating dependent income taxes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While there are many nuances to tax dependents, you can still claim them even if they earn income or receive SNAP benefits or other government assistance.
