Qualifying dependents
I have a 20 year old daughter who is a full-time student away at school. The software keeps asking whether she earned more or less than $4300, and if she earned $4300+ (which she did), she does not qualify as a dependent. My understanding, so long as she is a full-time student she should qualify as a dependent. We have checked outside sources and found this to be the case. Nowhere did it ASK me if she was a full-time student... however I did enter her 1098-T information later, and nothing changed. I think this will make a change in my refund/payment. I have an 18yo daughter who is also a full time student, and the earnings question was not posed under her information. Should my 20yo full time student be a qualified dependent??
