A daughter-in-law who lives with the taxpayer cannot be a qualifying child because the IRS's definition of a qualifying child does not include in-laws. However, she could potentially be a qualifying relative if she meets the other requirements set forth by the IRS, such as not having a gross income above a certain threshold and being supported by the taxpayer for more than half of her living expenses.
