If full-time college student working two jobs be claimed as dependent

You were a full-time student for only two months in 2017. You are not considered as a full-time student by the IRS as you need at least 5 months.

So if you are 19 or older and earned more than $4,050 in 2017, you cannot be claimed as a dependent.
