Please help me with the issues below:
-If the parents has a 22 years old dependent, had a job with AGI $37788. She remained a full time student in 2019 until she graduated in May 2019. As usual, she still qualifies as a dependent on a parent’s tax return. Can she qualify for a $1200 stimulus check, if her parents decide not to claim her as their dependent? If she had filed her return earlier this year with a dependent on someone else, but her parents had not yet filed it. Can she file amended return to change her status as not dependent on someone else.
-With a dependent 18 years old, full time student, had a job, AGI $7000. If the parents do not claim this child this year to let their child qualify for a $1200 check, then next year they claim this child back to their return.
-Is it legally to do that for both cases above?
Please advise! I look forward to hearing from you soon.
