Solved
I am in CA. My son, who was 16 to 17 during 2023, made approximately 6,000 working part time. Can I still claim him as a dependent for the 2023 tax year?

Yes he is still a dependent. But he might also have to file his own return. Rules to claim a dependent

They don't have to file if they only have W2 income under 13,850 (2023) but can file to get back any withholding taken out in boxes 2 or 17. But you don't get boxes 4 or 6 back. If they got a 1099Misc or 1099NEC they have to file it as self employment income no matter how small the amount.
Be sure on their return they check the box that says they can be claimed on someone else’s return.
