No - you can't.
To claim a dependent, that dependent must be living with you. They cannot be visiting you. A visitor isn't a dependent.

Hi,

After one year and more I returned in Aug 2012 and working from september 2012, now I received a T4 from my employer, i have to file taxes now. Now , should i file taxes for 2010, 2011 and 2012, ? Do I also show my income earned during the time period in my home country???? Since, i have to file, who are my best bet to go to in Toronto.
Please, can anyone guide me. Thanks.
