Land Owner Question part 2

[hornzilla]

My daughter that is in college is returning home over Thanksgiving from school.
You answered my question a few weeks ago. That if she was a dependent on my taxes that she didnt need a license to hunt my farm if I read it correctly.
She did file her taxes from working at the college. Where she makes a little "running" money.
But my wife and I calm her as a dependent on our taxes. As my accountant informed me to.
So I take it she does not need a license.
Sorry for the confusion. This is her first time deer hunting. Just want everything to be right. Thanks again.

The Indiana Code, posted below, states the owner of farmland, the owner's spouse, and the owner's children living with the owner are exempt from needing a license when hunting the farmland that is owned. You daughter, although staying at college, would be considered to be living with you which is evident by you claiming her on your taxes.
