When handicapped adults livings with parent eligible for Earned Income credit

I know that this year they are included and counted as a dependant.  Is that something new?  My old tax returns from 2012 I believe the filer didint file it right.  He was in his late 20's or   30's at that time and it was the first year my daughter was no longer a dependant because she was 18.  I was expecting a refund and asked her if she put down he was hadicapped/diasabled and she said yes.  I cant find the form now but She probably should have listed him as a dependent or would it not have mattered at that time?  Someone please help!
