Hey,
I did not initially claim either of last year's stimulus payments with the (now-closed) non-filer tool as I initially believed I was not eligible due to my interpretation of being a qualifying dependent. However I would like to make sure if I was correct as the only reason i would file for last year is the make up refundable credit.
Info
1) I am a full-time student in the US
2) I am under 24
3) I am a currently full-time student university student in America (was full time spring last year and part time fall last year)
4) I am a US citizen
4) I made little enough last year to be exempt from withholding/filing
5) My parents pay a majority of my expenses
6) neither of my parents are us citizens
7) Both my parents live in Europe
😎 My father used to be a citizen and file taxes, but stopped years ago once he went through the process of getting rid of his US nationality, from my understanding
Do I still count as a potential dependent in the eyes of the IRS?

Yes. You are a dependent because your parents paid a majority of your expenses.
To be considered a “qualifying child” of your parents:
See Rules for Claiming a Dependent on Your Tax Return.
The IRS also has an app (Whom May I Claim as a Dependent) to guide you through the process.
