Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Hi! 

 

I have a couple questions. Firstly, I am 20 years old and a full time college student. I filed my taxes as an independent for the first time this year but did check the box that says I CAN be claimed as a dependent. Neither of my parents claimed me, though. I also filed my 1098-T through my own taxes. If I checked the box that says I can be claimed as dependent but wasn't (I pay all of my own bills and for my own school), then am I still going to be considered an independent tax payer? I'm specifically wondering for my stimulus eligibility. 

 

Thank you!!!
