My son and his wife live with us. His only income is his SSI as he is schizophrenic. He and his wife filed a joint return for the stimulus. Can I still claim him? Normally they do not file as his income is not considered income and we provide over half the support.

If he filed a joint tax return and used his own exemption for 2019, you cannot claim him for the same year as a dependent on your tax return.

Yes, only one person gets dependent credit. You can't claim him too. Maybe next year. But I would talk to a tax preparer to see what you are able to claim for.

Just curious, doesn't wife work.
