In general, a spouse can be considered a dependent for tax purposes if they do not earn enough income to file their own tax return and meet certain criteria set by the IRS. However, even if they are not a dependent in that sense, they may still be eligible for coverage under a family health insurance plan. It's important to assess your specific financial and tax situation to determine the appropriate classification. Always consult with a tax professional for personalized advice.
