Would there be any benefits to not claiming the student as a dependent versus claiming them?
such as EIC, EITC credits or any others that might help relieve tax owed?
The student is a full time student with a birthday around October 2002. (I’m guessing that makes them qualify as a dependent. I’m wondering about how claiming or not claiming will affect taxes as well now)
Would the amount owed still be the same whether the student is claimed or not as dependent?
(is filing as independent the same as not claiming the student as dependent ? )
Thank you for taking your time by the way!
