disability

[rmstrick]

I have 2 unmarried potential clients that live that live with her father. Last year they had a child. The lady is on disability. Based on the amount of disability the mother does not have to file. The income of the baby’s father is not high enough to allow claiming the mother as a dependent. Based on what I understand the baby’s father can claim single with the baby as his dependent. If the child’s father claims the baby as a dependent (gets CTC & EIC) does this jeopardize the mother’s disability?

She should ask the agency that is disbursing her disability payments about qualification rules and regulations. She can ask you about their taxability.
