“ Topic 357 - Tax Information for Parents of Kidnapped Children— http://www.irs.gov/taxtopics/tc357.html za boingboingYou may claim a kidnapped child as your dependent if the following requirements are met:”
- The child must be presumed by law enforcement to have been kidnapped by someone who is not a member of your family or a member of the child's family, and
- The child had, for the taxable year in which the kidnapping occurred, the same principal place of abode as the taxpayer for more than one-half of the portion of such year before the date of kidnapping.
[...]This tax treatment will cease to apply as of your first tax year beginning after the calendar year in which either there is a determination that the child is dead or the child would have reached age 18, whichever occurs first.
