No that would work. BUT how old are you? He can only claim you if you made less than $4,700 unless you are under 19 or under 24 and a Full Time Student. Then he can claim you no matter how much you make.
The13,850 minimum is only for your filing requirement. You don't have to file if you only have W2 income under 13,850 (2023) but you can file to get back any withholding taken out in boxes 2 or 17. But you don't get boxes 4 or 6 back. If you got a 1099Misc or 1099NEC you have to file it as self employment income no matter how small the amount.
In fact if someone CAN claim you as a dependent you have to check that box even if they do not claim you.
