Made a what I hope was not a big mistake regarding my dependent status

[Pyramid1967]

I did my taxes myself for the first time.  I thought my parents could claim me as a dependent as they have every year.  I live with them and they provide over 50 percent of my support.  I made $10,000 this year.  So I no longer qualify as their dependent.  When I filed I indicated they would be claiming me.  They have not filed yet.  I was just accepted by the IRS today.  I cannot amend the return yet.  Will this cause problems for me and my parents.  Please help.  Thank you

If you are under 19 (or under 24 and a full-time student), your parents can claim you no matter what your income is. 

If you are over 19 and not a student, then the income limit is $4,200 as a 'Qualifying Relative' so your parents would not be able to claim you with your income. 

If they are entitled to claim you, it doesn't affect your return whether they do so or not, but it may affect your parents return.

If they are not entitled to claim you, you can Amend your Return and mail it in after you receive your Refund..
