Income shouldn't be a problem in you claiming your 19-year-old daughter who is a full-time student. Make sure you state that she is indeed a full-time student and her age is correct. Also, understand that time away from home at school is called a temporary absence and counts as her living with you. Check the answers to the other dependency questions.
She will probably fall under the "Qualifying Child" rules where income isn't even an issue.

You misunderstood something you read, or you answered something incorrectly. You CAN claim your 19 year old full-time colleges student as your dependent, even if she earned over $4050. Make sure you said she lived at home all year--even if she was away at school; that is a "temporary absence"--you can still say she lived with you. Since she is your dependent , you get to enter the education credits on your own tax return -- like the 1098T.
She can file a tax return, but MUST say she can be claimed as a dependent on someone else's tax return.
