As of right now, my taxes i will be getting back will be around 2500 federal and around 308 for Indiana state. I claimed my mom and my little sister as my dependents since they do not generate any income and live with me full time. My mom said that without me claiming them as dependents, i would've only gotten around 600 dollars back fully from both. My mom states that since i'm getting around 2500 for taxes, and because i claimed them as my dependents, she should get half, and i should get half, even though she doesn't work and has been unemployed for years.
Her reason for unemployment is she is trying to get disability for her mental issues, but because of that, she cant get a job, otherwise her case would go through the window. She is saying that the 1000 dollars would go to pay our house mortgage that my grandma is paying right now.
The money is going to an account that we both own, because i am only 17 until May. Could she just legally take half or all of my refund because it's going into our account? Or does the IRS have something that only I could take THAT money out?
