Can I Claim My Daughter If She Worked Part-Time?
“College costs are high, and young adults also want the amenities that extra money brings,” according to John B. Boshoven, counselor for continuing education at Community High School in Michigan. However, he warns, “school is my students’ full-time job.”
When does a college student become a dependent?
A full-time college student is generally a dependent if they’re under age 24 and don’t provide more than half of their own support, says Benson. Part-time students who are 19 or older may not be a dependent. “If a child is going to school part-time, is over 19 and they are working and making more than $4,300, they are not a dependent,” says Steber.
