For real? I think you’d need to get them SSNs, which might be a problem without a birth certificate or even birthday. That being said, if you are responsible for nurturing them and keeping them alive I’d say that’s a clear dependency, so I think you’d have a bureaucratic nightmare but a fun court case.

Honestly, what is keeping anyone with frozen eggs/embryos or whatever from claiming them as dependents based on the ruling?
I totally fucking would. It would do one of two things:
The Alabama state government would make me a multi-millionaire overnight.
completely reverse the ruling.

Somebody in Alabama should float a test case, and sue for dependent claim in-state. Make those rubes pay for their proud ignorance.
I’ve got $25 for that crowdfund. Someone with standing file it, I gotchu.
By that same logic, could a business owner of a corporation claim said corporation as a dependent because corporations are people now?
The IRS doesn’t agree and you’d have to sue them most likely. I doubt then the Alabama tax office would allow it.
