Great, thank you. While we're on the subject, if our 21 yr old can pay more than half her own support in 2025 (counting a 529 distribution we will have sent to her instead of the parents, so she can pay fall tuition), can she claim the AOTC for this year if we don't claim her as a dependent? She has a summer job that includes housing, so if the 529 distribution for fall goes to her (and maybe she claims her scholarship as income), that's achievable. I'm having trouble interpreting the rules for a student who *can* be claimed as a dependent vs one who *is* claimed as a dependent.
