So then my son should only be getting a $1,500 credit (his income is above the $14,600 mentioned), yet Turbo Tax is generating the entire $2,500 for some reason.
As for NJ dependents, the linked instructions are exactly the ones I found, however, they only say they must QUALIFY to be a federal dependent, not that they must be CLAIMED as a federal dependent. That is the key part I am looking to find out. He is qualified as my federal dependent, but not being claimed. New Jersey's wording leads me to believe I can still claim him on my state return.
