You can only claim citizenship of a country if you are such. In any case, it would make no difference as far as taxation is concerned. If you earn income in the United States, you are still responsible to pay U. S. Income Taxes and to file a tax return. Being a citizen of Another Country can only make you possibly subject to their taxes as well if the other country requires it. The only difference is that if you also earned income in the other country as well and paid taxes to the other country, you can use the tax paid to another country as a deduction on your U. S. Tax Return if you have proof of such.
One can claim a dependent that is living abroad if you are helping to support them. You also need to make sure that they know that you are claiming them.

Launching a civil claim case in another country can be very difficult as you will likely have to travel back to that other country to pursue the claim. It is very important to only do business with reputable businesses in other countries for that reason.
Either they fail to read/ understand the form, OR- the person can be claimed as a dependent of another (teenager with part time job, but a dependent of his parents)
You may never claim your spouse as a dependent. You may, however, claim a standard exemption for your spouse if she does not have to file and you are not filing jointly (and as long as no one else is claiming her as a dependent).
If the "dependent" brother is under 19 and is not a full time student then you can not claim him as a dependent and you can not claim Head of Household status. How old is this brother?
Yes but you must be able to claim them even though you gave up the dependency. The child must live with you all year.
