If you file Form 1040A, there is room to list sixdependents in the Exemptions Section on page 1. If you're claiming more than six dependents on Form 1040A, you attach a statement to your return listing the additional dependents and giving the information required for each one (first name, last name, social security number, relationship to you, check if qualify for child tax credit).

If you file Form 1040, there is room to list fourdependents in the Exemptions Section on page 1. If more than that number of dependents, you check the box to the left of line 6c and attach a statement with each additional dependent's name and the requested information.

Anyone who meets the requirements for qualifying as your dependent can be claimed on your tax return.

As many as qualify...qualification requires having an ID number for them, and that no one else, including themselves, is claiming them.
