If I am a dependent, do I say "yes" to questions that ask about if someone in my family went to school, or if I had medical expenses, knowing my parents paid for them?

I'm confused because I went to school so yes, someone in my family went to school (community college), but I wasn't the one to pay for the classes because my parents did for me, so I'm not sure if that matters or not to me clicking "yes".

When you entered your information in MY INFO----did you say YES to the question that asks if someone else can claim you as a dependent? You need to say yes to that question. You are not going to be entering medical expenses on your tax return or saying anything about any other family members going to school.
