 Only if she had gross income of less than $3,300 for the
year and you provided more than half of her support. For
more info and details on how to do the dependent test, see
IRS Pub. 501, available online at:

1. If she earned wages under her own SSN and received a W2,
she has to file her own tax return.

2. If she earned over $3,300 in 2006, you can't claim her as
a dependent.

3. You would each file a separate return, filing as single
with no dependents (assuming you have no children), claiming
your own income.
