Solved

I have claimed my son as a dependent, he has a w-2 and is a full time student in college. Can I still claim him or do I add his income with mine?

You can still claim him if you are paying more than half of his support and he is under 24 years of age. You are not allowed to enter his W-2 income on your own return. He must file if he made at least $6300 in earned income or to claim any taxes paid if he earned less than that. He should indicate on his return that someone else can claim him as a dependent.
