Hi pros,
Client paid for father's surgery who is a Mexcian national living in Mexico, about 70k USD. He has no tax id.
Client can claim him as dependent as father has no income in 2020 and he provided more than 6 month support.
Anyone dealt with this before? I read on IRS publication Mexican resident is qualifiing relative.....never knew this before. How do US national report Mexcian dependent living in Mexico with no tax id?
Headscratcher!
