It depends if you can be claimed as a dependent by another taxpayer, your standard deduction for 2019 is limited to the greater of:
- $1,100, or
- your earned income plus $350 (but the total can't be more than the basic standard deduction for your filing status).
Therefore, if the student had enough income then he/she can have a standard deduction of $12,200.
