Claiming Dependent who is 22yrs old and part time college student who worked
Our son turned 22 yr old in 2022. His Form 1098-T box 8 is checked that he was a half time student. Box 1 has $5000. Our son did work in 2022 and earned $28,000. Can we claim him and his tuition since he was a half time student in 2022.
We are not sure about this. We definitely don't want to take the AOC credit on our tax return if we don't qualify for it but at the same time, we certainly don't want to leave any possible credits out there.
Also, can someone explain in easy layman's term in regard to when I see comments about - "does not provide more than half his own support.".
The question about the support test is because we are confused. Does that mean if our son earned $28K in 2022 we had to have to paid more than $14K in food, clothing, cell phone bill, medical etc to pass the support test? Is that correct?
Thank you in advance for your assistance.
