Deductions & credits

Thank you for the fast response.  Just so I'm clear, when I'm doing his taxes, I have answered that 'someone can claim me as a dependent' and then answer 'no, no one will claim me in 2020'.  With those answers, he gets $1100 more back.  If I change the second answer to 'yes, someone will claim me in 2020', he gets the lower value.  Seems like I can answer those questions that way and be ok?
