Answer #1

To Claim Zach as dependent the child must have lived with parent for at least half of the year. In the given case Zach ( Child) has stayed at home with Andrew.

Hence stay with Andrew is more than 6 months during the year . He can claim Zach as dependent

Lacy cannot claim child as dependent since child has not stayed with her for at least half of the year since she moved out on September 25
