Trying to figure out if my son can file as independent on his 2021 taxes or Hass to be claimed as a dependent. I do not provide half of his support. His father who I am not married to does not provide half of his support. He earns $10,000 in a summer internship that was out of state.
My son has a large scholarship on his 1098 t box 5 is much greater than box one. In 2021 breaks from school were canceled due to Covid. He lived at school and out of state during the summer. If neither parent provided more than half of his support… and he used his income and any savings he had and mostly the scholarship to provide his support can he be considered independent??
