Answer:

5 months

Step-by-step explanation:

The taxpayer can only deduct the first five months of the qualifying child. May is the fifth month. On June 1st, the qualifying child is going to be 14 years old. Therefore he cannot be included in work-related expenses as specified in the Publication 503 - Main Content from the IRS. Please see the Working-Related Expenses, Indent (b) which is as follows:

(b) The parent of your qualifying person if your qualifying person is your child and under age 13.
