My daughter turned 17 during this tax year. She is a full time student; Senior in High School. My wife and I are her parents, she lived with us the entire year and we paid 100% of her living expenses. She worked a part-time job all year and made over $10,000 which she is saving to pay for her college.
When I enter her information, if I check the box saying, yes, she had an income over $4,150 it then says she does not qualify as my dependent.
Why would she not qualify?

Best guess is that you answered some questions incorrectly during the interview. Go back through everything again. If she was 17 as of 12/31/18 she should qualify for the Other Dependent Tax Credit of $500.
