Yes.
There are two types of dependents, "Qualifying Children"(QC) and Other ("Qualifying Relative" in IRS parlance even though they don't have to actually be related). There is no income limit for a QC but there is an age limit, student status, a relationship test and residence test.
A child of a taxpayer can still be a “Qualifying Child” (QC) dependent, regardless of his/her income, if:
Graduating from high school in May or June satisfies the 5 month requirement for being a full time student for the year. So, even if she works the rest of the year, she is still your qualifying child for 2022. Also, if she is still under 19 on 12-31-22, she is a QC even if not a student.
So, it doesn't matter how much he earned. What matters is how much he spent on support. Money he put into savings does not count as support he spent on him self.
The support value of the home, provided by the parent, is the fair market rental value of the home plus utilities & other expenses divided by the number of occupants.
The IRS has a worksheet that can be used to help with the support calculation. See: http://apps.irs.gov/app/vita/content/globalmedia/teacher/worksheet_for_determining_support_4012.pdf
How old will your daughter be on Dec 31, 2022? That matters. If she will be "under the age of 19" on that date, then assuming she meets the other requirements, she's your dependent. (It doesn't matter how much she may earn during 2022 either.)
