    Lan can NOT be claimed as a dependent by his uncle because he is not a citizen or resident of the U. S.

    Explanation:

    In this scenario, Lan cannot be claimed as a dependent by his uncle because he is neither a citizen nor a resident of the United States. For you to be considered a dependent, then you must have been in the United States continuously for Five years and hence in the process achieved residency. Without this been met, then it is impossible for Lan to be claimed as a dependent because he has only stayed 5 months.
