A multiple support agreement means that more than one person is contributing to the support of the dependent. In order to claim Millie as a dependent, the supporting parties must provide more than 50% of her support and meet other qualifications. In this case, Weston and Faith are the only two parties mentioned, so they are the only ones who can potentially qualify to claim Millie as a dependent.
