My daughter is 20 and attends college in Ohio. She is a dependent. Can I say she lived with me 12 months out of the year or do I say she lived with me for the summer?

The IRS considers absences for attending college as temporary absences. If your daughter habitually lives with you, you can say that she lived with you the whole year.
