My son is 20 and lives at home but is a 3/4 time student. He made 12,000. Can I still claim him if he’s only 10 credits?

[angela-edmonds]

I fully  support him and he does not have any financial obligations. I also paid for all schooling. The 10 credits vs 12 full time credits is what I am confused about. Does the 3/4 time enrollment disqualify him as a depended the?

Yes, in order to claim him, he would need to be a full-time student.
