Explanation:

Before a child can qualify as a dependent child, the child must meet six qualifying IRS tests for relationship, age, residency, support, joint return, and citizenship. A qualifying child cannot file jointly with the taxpayer unless to claim a refund.  To qualify as a dependent relative, the relative is expected to be resident in the taxpayer's household throughout the year or be related to the taxpayer in some ways.
