If I put that I was a claimable dependent on my taxes, but never was claimed by my father what happens?

the rule is not whether you were claim but could you be claimed.  if all these tests are met you father could claim you

  • Same principal abode as your father for more than ½ the tax year.  Temporary absences like for school are ignored
  • If not a full-time student, under 19 at the end of the tax year.  If a full-time student under 24 at end of tax year.  
  • your father has provided over ½ your support
  • you didn't file a joint return with your spouse except. this test doen't apply if there was no tax liability.
