Get your taxes done using TurboTax

You can claim your son as your dependent if he was under 24 and a full-time student and if you provided for more than half his support.

 

Depending on how much income he had and what type, he may have to file an income tax return. If he is not required to file, he may want to file to claim a refund. He will not claim himself on his tax return.

 

Dependents are not eligible for stimulus payments. Any missing first and second stimulus payments will be added to your return as Recovery Rebate Credit. You will also get the third stimulus.
