Jennifer, You can only claim a person if you have provided more than 50 percent of their support for the year.

The above answer is correct. In additon, The support test considers all of the dependent's income - both taxable and nontaxable. So, depending on the amount of the benefit, you may or may not. There are worksheets on the IRS website that will help you determin that.
