Mom has guardianship of my son and both are on Medicaid, can I claim him on my taxes?

If my Mother is on Medicaid with my son and she has legal guardianship of him, What happens if I claim him (son) on my taxes? Will my son lose his medicaid coverage with my mom?

I will find out. Thanks jjariz!

If you pay court-ordered child support, see what the agreement states about who can claim him as a dependent.

I live with my son and my mom and I pay my mom child support.  Could he still loose his medicaid coverage?

If you claim that you're supporting him on your taxes, he could lose his Medicaid coverage.

Who does he live with? If her than probably no. Plus she has guardianship. You have to be supporting him more than 50%. Do
you pay support? This is a question or a tax preparer.
