    Joseph or John

    Explanation:

    In order to claim a person as a dependent in order to be eligible for tax benefits, one must contribute with more than 10% of the person's support.

    In this case, only Joseph and John contribute with more than 10% and therefore only Joseph or John would be entitled to claim their father as a dependent.
