That also depends. He does not have to have less than $4150 if he is your qualifying child. If on December 31 he was under 19, or a student under 23, he is your qualifying child if he did not provide at least half of his own support. He could have made more than $4150 in this test, and you would still get the $500 Other Dependent Credit. Otherwise you wouldn't be able to claim him at all.
