Client has income in the $50,000 dollar range. Covered by insurance through employer.
Has daughter living with her that is in her 40's with no income at all. Daughter did not
have health insurance for whole year. They live in a state that did not expand medicaid.
Daughter not eligible to be claimed on mother's insurance (too old) nor can she get on
medicaid.

If daughter is claimed as dependent will mother be liable for penalty or could the use of
Code G (resident of state that did not expand medicaid) prevent the mother from being
penalized for the daughter.

For resident of a state that did not expand Medicaid you have to do more than simply live in a state that did not expand Medicaid.

"Your household income was below 138% of the federal poverty line for your family size and at any time in 2015 you resided in a state that didn't participate in the Medicaid expansion under the Affordable Care Act."

The question then would be is household income in the $50,000 dollar range under 138% of federal poverty line? Unless there's more dependents I think the answer is no.
