Can i go back and claim a relative dependent on last years taxes?


Can i go back and claim a relative dependent on last years taxes?

If the person qualifies and didn't claim themself on their own return, you can file an amended return, or 1040X.

You have up to 3 years to amend from the original due date (for 2006 returns, that would be 4/15/2010)

If you have a dependent that you were eligible to claim, but didn't, then you can amend your return. You have until 4/15/2010 to do it.

yes, you can
get a 1040X for the year in question, fill it out and send it in
