Did he have more than $4150 of income in 2018?  If so, you cannot claim him as a dependent.

It depends.  In order to claim your son as a dependent, he would need to earn less than $4,150 and you would need to provide MORE than 1/2 of his support for the year.  If both of these do not apply, then no, you cannot claim him as a dependent.
