After you file

I'm 19.  However I was told I wasn't able to be claimed as a dependent after I aged out of the system. (I was in fostercare, and only got to the legal guardianship phase.)  I should also mention I am not a full-time student, only part-time. Plus I didn't live with anyone for the whole year. I only lived with my guardian until May (I got kicked out after highschool), and couchsurfed the entire time until college.
