It depends on his age at the end of 2024, whether he is a full-time student and his gross income in 2024.
You can claim him as a dependent if he didn't provide more than half of his own support for the year and he was under 19 at the end of 2024 (or under 24 and a full-time student).
If he was 19 or older (or 24 or older and a full-time student), you can't claim him as a dependent if he earned more than $5,050 in 2024. If he earned less than $5,050 and you have provided more than half of his support, you can claim him as a qualified relative.
