If I payed taxes on money I sent to take care of my boyfriend all year in jail should I claim that on my taxes or claim him as a dependent? Will it make a difference?

No. You cannot claim your jailed BF as a dependent. He is not your dependent--you are not providing his support. His support is being provided by the penal institution where he is serving time. Money you are sending him is a gift. Gifts to individuals are not deductible. Sorry.
