If she was 23 on 12/31/19, then you must meet the requirements under a qualifying child in order to claim her as a dependent. If she was 24 on 12/31/19, then you must meet the requirements under a qualifying relative in order to claim her as a dependent. Please view the requirements in the Turbo Tax FAQ below.
