After you file

Thanks for the responses from all of you.

 

I was in school from January to June; I turned 18 before December 2020; I did not live with my parents but my legal residence was listed as their address since I was living with different friends throughout the year; my taxable income on the tax return was like $8,000.

 

Living with one of my friends' family was what made me confused about if I could be claimed, since they paid for a lot of my expenses for half of the year. 

 

Unfortunately, they wouldn't have the money to reimburse me if they did claim me, so if that's the case then I just have to consider it lost. An extra $1800 would be nice though.
