Can I qualify as a dependent?

I'm 26, a full-time student, and made less than $4,050 last year and live with my parents still

Yes. As long as you pass the following test to qualify as your dependent which you state you do.

  1. Cannot be the qualifying child of anyone else.                             
  2. Lived with you all year.
  3. Gross income for the year must be less than $4,050.                           
  4. You must have provided more than half of her total support during the calendar year.
