On my VA state tax it doesn't look like me being claimed by someone else was considered because it gave me a standard deduction of 2700 (appox)?

Based on these instructions, I am assuming your earned income is 2700?

Line 11. Standard Deduction
If you claimed the standard deduction on your federal return, you must also claim the standard deduction on your Virginia return. Enter on Line 11 the amount listed below that corresponds with your filing status.
Filing Status 1
Enter $4,500
Filing Status 2
Enter $9,000
Filing Status 3
Enter $4,500
Do not complete Line 10 when claiming a standard deduction.
Dependent on Another’s Return - If you can be claimed as a dependent on the federal return of another taxpayer, your standard deduction is limited to the amount of your earned income. Enter the smaller of the amount of earned income or the standard deduction amount on Line 11.
