Refund

I claimed as dependent because I still live with my parents. But it’s showing that I’m getting the amount back on my federal and state that they took. 
Ex: fed-123 state:234

what I’m getting back fed-123

state-234 

did I mess up?

Refund

No, you did not mess up.  Even if you are claimed as a dependent by your parents, you are still entitled to claim the standard deduction.  Your standard deduction would be up to $12,200.  So if you made less than that amount, you would be entitled to receive a refund of everything that was withheld.
