However, a dependent does not have to be a relative if the person lived in the home all year as a member of the household. If the person is not a relative, the relationship must not violate local law.

Your best bet is to have someone do your taxes and ask them. There are a lot of services out there at tax time and they don't cost that much. Make sure they stand by whatever they tell you so that, if you do claim them and get a red flag you aren't the one to "blame". Pretty sure if they don't claim themselves and no one else does, you can. Again be sure to check with a professional. U.S. Constitution, Amendment 16. As long as they don’t claim themselves.
