Last year my parents claimed me, but this year I made more money and cannot be considered a dependent. What do I do about getting last year's return?

But did you also file your own return last year for your own income?  Why do you need a copy?  If you didn't file a separate return from your parents last year then your AGI is zero.

Oh, do you mean you need to file a 2017 return now to get a refund?

If your parents claimed you as a Dependent on their return last year, you don't need a copy of their tax return in order to file yourself this year.
