Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Great questions!!!

I am going to assume that you are wondering what is the maximun age for claiming a dependent on your return who is a student.  ( fyi students do not need to live at home to be your dependent)

You can claim a dependent who is under 24 years old and is a student.  If that student is 24 years or older and makes less than $4400 (2022 number), then they can be claimed as a Qualifying relative.  This is as long as you pay more than half of their support.  There are other requirements too.  Here are the basics:

The IRS has an interview that you can use to determine who can be claimed as a dependent.
