Some things to note about the requirements:
- The student's earnings do not matter. The student could earn a million dollars and still qualify as your dependent.
- There is no requirement for the parents to provide the student any support. Not one single penny. The support requirement is on the student, and *only* the student.
- Third party income such as scholarships, grants, 529 distributions, gifts from Aunt Mary, money from mom and dad, etc, *DO* *NOT* *COUNT* for the student providing their own support.
