Kids should not have to pay taxes as long as they are still under the car of an adult. If a teen has been emancipated, then they will be required to pay taxes.

Up to a certain point. You are responsible to file a tax return every year. If you don't the IRS will file it for you in the worst possible manner. You can file the correct return, but can only claim a refund for the current year plus the previous two years. Anything before that you are liable for taxes but cannot claim a refund.

No. He can't even claim them (if they live with you) when he see's them every week. If you get a letter from IRS saying that he is claiming them - be sure to write back and explain the situation. He will have to pay more tax and you will get to claim them.


How old can your child be to claim as a dependent on your tax return?

Your child can be claimed from the moment of birth. Even if the child lived only for a moment, you can claim a dependent exemption for that child as long as it was a live birth. You can't claim an exemption for a stillborn child.There are two types of dependents: Qualifying Child and Qualifying Relative. The age requirement for Qualifying Child is under age 19, or a student under age 24, or any age and permanently and totally disabled.There are no age limitations for Qualifying Relative. So if your child doesn't meet the age requirement, then you might be able to claim him/her as a Qualifying Relative.For more information, go online at www.irs.gov/formspubs. Select Publication Number. Type 501 into the Find box to read/print Publication 501 (Exemptions, Standard Deduction, and Filing Information).

If a 16 year old girl get pregnant does the 17 year old father of the unborn child have to marry the girl before he can claim to be the legal father of the child?

your sick. Another answer: Well, I think it's legal, as the age of consent in most states is 16. He's the dad if you're married or not, but I would advise you two to marry before the child is born- that way, you will be able to raise it better.
