So can someone assist me in understanding for 2020 tax year. I am 23yo and a full-time student my mother is deceased as of 2019 and I use her inheritance/loans to live currently, she was my main caretaker and claimed me as her dependent until 2 years ago. On form 8615 it states to use my father's name and SSN, however, although he is living, he is not my caretaker, nor has he ever claimed me on his taxes even when I was a dependent (which I am now NOT, I claim to be single, non-dependent filer), nor do I even know his SSN. What is an individual to do in this situation, thank you.
