What’s New

Signed Statement

The rules for multiple support agreements still apply to claiming an
exemption for a qualifying relative, but they no longer apply to
claiming an exemption for a qualifying child. For the definitions of
“qualifying relative” and “qualifying child,” see your tax return
instruction booklet.

You must have received, from each other eligible person listed
above, a signed statement waiving his or her right to claim the
person as a dependent for the calendar year indicated on this form.
The statement must include:
● The calendar year the waiver applies to,
● The name of your qualifying relative the eligible person helped to
support, and

Purpose of Form
Use Form 2120 to:
● Identify each other eligible person (see below) who paid over 10%
of the support of your qualifying relative whom you are claiming as a
dependent, and
● Indicate that you have a signed statement from each other eligible
person waiving his or her right to claim that person as a dependent.
An eligible person is someone who could have claimed a person
as a dependent except that he or she did not pay over half of that
person’s support.
If there are more than four other eligible persons, attach a
statement to your return with the required information.

Claiming a Qualifying Relative
Generally, to claim a person as a qualifying relative, you must pay
over half of that person’s support. However, even if you did not meet
this support test, you may be able to claim him or her as a
dependent if all five of the following apply.
1. You and one or more other eligible person(s) (see above)
together paid over half of that person’s support.
2. You paid over 10% of the support.
3. No one alone paid over half of that person’s support.
4. The other dependency tests are met. See Step 4, Is Your
Qualifying Relative Your Dependent? in the Form 1040 or Form
1040A instructions.
5. Each other eligible person who paid over 10% of the support
agrees not to claim that person as a dependent by giving you a
signed statement. See Signed Statement on this page.

● The eligible person’s name, address, and social security number.
Do not file the signed statement with your return. But you must keep
it for your records and be prepared to furnish it and any other
information necessary to show that you qualify to claim the person
as your dependent.
