Question

If I am a dependent but my parent is not going to file this year, do I still answer yes to "Someone else can claim me as a dependent on their tax return"?

If someone can claim you, you must check that box even if that person is not going to claim you.  Failing to check that box (such as to get a stimulus payment) would be considered tax fraud.
