Support Test (To be a Qualifying Child)

Support

 To meet this test, the child

can’t have provided more

than half of his or her own

support for the year.
 This test is different from the

5S support test to be a

qualifying relative, which is
described later.

 However, to see what is or

isn't support, see Support

Test (To Be a Qualifying
Relative), later. If you aren't

sure whether a child provided

more than half of his or her
own support, you may find

Worksheet 3-1 helpful.
