Get your taxes done using TurboTax
Look at your W-2. Is there anything in box 2 or box 17? Those boxes show tax withheld. If you file a tax return you can get a refund of some (or maybe all) of that. When you file your own tax return you need to say in My Info that you can be claimed as a dependent on someone else's tax return. Your mom can still claim you as her dependent even if you file your own tax return. And, not the address the employer put on your W-2 will not create a problem. The most important thing is for your Social Security number to be correct. Your W-2 does NOT go on your mom's tax return.
