I was claimed as a dependent on my Dad's Federal and CA State tax returns. I marked that I was a dependent on someone elses return but it still gave me the Standard Deduction of $4,236 on my CA State return. Is this correct?? I checked both the Federal & State worksheets and they are both marked that someone else is claiming me.
This is most likely correct. Your standard deduction as a dependent depends on what your earned income was – generally, this is income from wages or self-employment.
Please see California Standard Deduction Worksheet for Dependents in California 540 Forms & Instructions for more information.
