Deductions & credits

Why do you think you cannot claim her as a dependent?  She is under the age of 24, a full-time student, she earned very little and you supported her.  She is a qualified child dependent.   You have answered something incorrectly.   Delete her from My Info and go back to enter her again.  Make sure you say she is a full-time student in My Info.  Go through those screens carefully again.

 

You should get the $500 credit for other dependents for claiming her and you are the one who can get an education credit.  If you did not receive a $1400 stimulus for claiming her already, then you should also get that.
