What do I do if I'm an adult, dependent on my adult child. I have forms to file as well. Where do they go?

You can still file a tax return even if you are being claimed as a dependent on someone else's return.  When you enter your information in My Info, you will be asked if you can be claimed as someone else's dependent.  Say YES.

So, seeing as I have a couple of documents, none of which are income, I should still file on myself?
