You have provided no details about your son so we cannot tell if you should be getting any sort of credits for claiming him as a dependent.   Provide some information---how old was he at the end of 2020?   Was he a full-time student?   Did he have any income of his own?  How much?  Was your own income the same--or about the same  -- as your 2019 income?
