Deductions & credits

Originally, I thought the same, however when filling out his tax return it makes a big difference for him if
I don't claim him, roughly $2500. The big item is the education credit he gets from his 1098-T for his student loan.

 

I have not completely filled out my return yet with and without him as a dependent to see the difference, I may try that both ways and see what the difference is then compare what is the better way to go. I think I am ok to do it either way, just trying to see which way works best. 

 

Thanks again.
