To clarify: their father paying 2/3 of their college tuition and room & board does not factor into their "dependent" status for me?
Our income is too high to receive any of the education credits. When creating a tax return for them within turbo tax, my dependents can select "someone else can claim me on their tax return" and "not one will claim me in 2020", and it gives them the American Opportunity Credit. If I didn't claim them, are they allowed to do this?
