explanation
A special request for children over 18 to be included as dependents on their parents' tax return. I'd leave it in French with an explanation if possible.

"dependent" is for "personne comptée à charge"
What is referred to here are those young adults who for unspecified reasons file independent returns ("have NOT requested etc..")

to request to be considered members of someone's household
Hello,
*n'ont pas demandé leur rattachement à votre foyer * = have not requested to be considered members of your household (for tax purposes).
You should use the present perfect (have not requested)
Also, I prefer the word "members" in US English, as that is that standard word.
I hope this helps.
