Was eligible for unemployment in 2020, but had issues and was not approved until 2021. So I received support from a family member from 2020 and they claimed me on their taxes. Is it still possible for me to file and receive a tax refund?&nbsp;</P> Mon, 09 Mar 2026 06:48:29 GMT https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/taxes/discussion/dependent/01/2628539#M941851 dartmouth26 2026-03-09T06:48:29Z https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/taxes/discussion/re-dependent/01/2628603#M941875 <P>Yes, you can file as a dependent and you may get a tax refund depending on your income.</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>If you agree that you were a dependent, go ahead and check the box in the <STRONG>Personal info </STRONG>section that says someone claimed me as a dependent.&nbsp;</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>This will affect your refund because you can't get any tax credits as a dependent, but you may still have a refund.&nbsp;</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>If you don't agree that you should have been claimed as a dependent, you can ask the person that claimed you to amend their tax return, so that you can file as a non-dependent.&nbsp;</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>If you do that, you will have to print and mail in your return because the IRS will not accept your tax return even after the amendment is processed.&nbsp;</P> Mon, 28 Mar 2022 23:00:51 GMT https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/taxes/discussion/re-dependent/01/2628603#M941875 JulieS 2022-03-28T23:00:51Z
