I have a question about tax return. I am 25 years old and I made $6800 of the year 2017. Should my parent claim me as dependent if i am under her healthy insurance plan?

No, your parents cannot claim you as a dependent on their tax return since you are over 23 and making more than $4,050. Who pays your insurance does not affect this. It is generally better for you on your FAFSA if your parents can't claim you.
