The child would have to have their tax return amended and repay any money that they should not have got. If the parents also filed incorrectly, theirs would have to be amended as well.

Yes as long as all of the rules are met by and the child to be your qualifying child dependent on your income tax return. Dependent not allowed a personal exemption. If you can claim an exemption for your dependent, the dependent cannot claim his or her own personal exemption on his or her own tax return. This is true even if you do not claim the dependent's exemption on your return or if the exemption will be reduced under the phaseout rule described under Phaseout of Exemptions, later. Make sure that the dependent indicates on the 1040 income tax return that him/her is using indicates this and cannot claim the 3650 exemption amount on the income tax return that is being filed.

If you are claimed as a dependent on someone else's return you are not eligible for a stimulus rebate. When claiming your mother, assuming that she has not had income over $3,400, a stimulus payment adjustment will be made to your tax rebate that will include the payment for her as well. Example: If you and you and a spouse filed, with your mother as a dependent. And your stimulus payment were to be $300 per exemption, you would receive a total of $900.

Will you receive money if your dependent has been claimed unjustly for the last 3 years?

You won't unless you file tax returns for the three years in question claiming the dependent. If you've already filed tax returns without claiming the dependent, you should file amended tax returns for the years in question. The deadline for filing a 2005 amended return is April 15, 2009. It is too late to amend years before 2005. Once you file your returns, the IRS will contact you for additional information. Note that if you e-file a return after someone else has claimed the same dependent, your e-file will be rejected. People erroneously assume this means that the first person to file gets the money. All it means is that the second person has to send in a paper return in order to begin the process of determining who gets the dependent.

If you have filed for bankruptcy and your boyfriend claims you as a dependent on his tax return will this affect your bankruptcy?

The person filing for the BK will have to present IRS and in most cases state tax documents. This may create a problem for the BK filer and for the person who claimed them as a dependent. IRS regulations for claiming dependents is very strict, the claiming of a non-relative, non-spouse or anyone who lives in the household when there is not a legally established relationship is not considered an eligible dependant. In such a situation as cited it is quite possible the BK will be dismissed and the IRS will initiate an audit of the tax filer.
