报税遇到问题:超过24岁的全职读书的孩子,还能作为我们的DEPENDENT吗

江南江北123
楼主 (文学城)

孩子到了24岁就不能报Dependent了吗?还在上学,工作收入$10,000左右。Turbotax 提示我们不能申请孩子作为DEPENDENT,除非孩子收入低于$4,700。孩子是靠我们的支持在读博士,有没有什么选项let us claim her as a  dependent?

谁遇到同样情况吗? 谢谢!

谢谢!是不是这两个CATEGORIES 都不符合?

A qualifying child: 孩子过了24岁。

A qualifying relative: Earns exceed $4,300.

 

 

新年好运
感觉没多少钱,我们只拿到 500 credit

Try "qualified relatives" vs "qualified child".

收入一万,有没有EIC啊?

前两天被儿子问住了。他说他的软件有提示,我说不可能。。。

Her earns from 2023 is about $10k, which exceeds $4,300.

下面是BORISG分享的信息。 和我了解的也是一样。似乎是两种都不行。

To qualify as a dependent, you must fall under one of two categories: qualifying child or qualifying relative.

A qualifying child:

Is younger than the filer Is younger than 19 (or younger than 24 if they are a full-time student) or permanently and totally disabled Must live with the filer for more than half the year (certain exceptions apply) Does not provide half of their own support

A qualifying relative:

Can be any age Must live with the filer for an entire year or pass the IRS Member of Household or Relationship Test Gets more than half of their support from the filer Earns less than $4,300 annually

Earned income credit. 我没有弄过,不确定具体条件。但合适的话数量应该超过作dependent的50

Sorry, did not see the earned income portion. You can't

claim her as your dependent.

谢谢指导。看了下,收入超过63,398,不符合要求。

Basic Qualifying Rules

To qualify for the EITC, you must:

Have worked and earned income under $63,398 Have investment income below $11,000 in the tax year 2023 Have a valid Social Security number by the due date of your 2023 return (including extensions) Be a U.S. citizen or a resident alien all year Not file Form 2555, Foreign Earned Income Meet certain rules if you are separated from your spouse and not filing a joint tax return

No worries! Thank you for your advice.

哎,你就不能换个角度啊。。。

基本确定不QUALIFY了。

我想到这点了。关键是孩子没有孩子啊。

Low- to moderate-income workers with qualifying children may be eligible to claim the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) if certain qualifying rules apply to them.

我的理解是只能是收入低于63,398的有孩子的报税者,才有可能QUALIFYING。对吗?

我给的连接里,2003的table就有single,收入是17k以下。

倒是学生身份我不确定。我家儿子问我时,我知道他工作了半年多,收入超过。

按照IRS给的步骤,一步一步走下来,得到的结果。请看内文。谢谢你了。

孩子单独保税,一万的收入不用上税,而且好像还有政府给学生的2000credit,可能更划算。

 

Taxpayers will receive a tax credit based on 100 percent of the first $2,000 of tuition, fees and course materials paid during the taxable year, plus 25 percent of the next $2,000 of tuition, fees and course materials paid during the taxable year.

指导别人填税表太费劲。外人那里知道这么多别人的事情呢。。。

Not exactly. Education credit is a nonrefundable credit

unless parents are deceased.

如果有收到1098-T for tuition and expenses,可以让孩子claim AOTC

最高可以拿到2500 tax credit。其中大约是1000 refundable, 1500 non refundable

有1098 T。AOTC有四年期限,在她本科阶段已经用了,那时我们把她当DEPENDENT, 现在是读博士。

现在她自己报税,可以CLAIM 另外四次AOCT吗?

刚查了一下 楼上的两位说的更准确

你这个case不能claim AOTC了,只能claim LLC, 但是LLC是non-refundable的。所以对你的case不一定能用上

The maximum amount you can claim on the LLC is $2,000 per year, compared to $2,500 for the AOTC. The AOTC can only be claimed for the first four years of undergraduate studies, while the LLC can be applied to undergraduate and graduate programs, as well as some trade schools and professional programs. The LLC is not refundable. So, you can use the credit to pay any tax you owe but you won’t receive any of the credit back as a refund.
