My adult child turned 24 in March 2024.  She lived with me for 9 months, was a full-time grad student and did not make enough to support herself.  She got a full-time job out of state mid-September and ended up making more than $5050 in 2024.  Now I'm not able to claim her as a dependent.  Can I get any benefit for 2024 since I paid more than 50% of her living expenses last year?  Thank you

    Since she turned 24 in tax year 2024 and her gross income is $5,050 or more, no one can claim her as a dependent.
