What are the qualifications for a federal tax refund?

You qualify for a federal tax refund if you have reached the tax reporting threshold and filed for income taxes. The tax reporting threshold varies depending on your age and marital status.

How long can you claim a child as a dependent on your taxes?

You can claim a child as long as the child does not file a joint return with a spouse (except for the sole purpose of claiming a refund) and the child meets the tests for a "qualifying child" or "qualifying relative" as detailed starting on page 11 of Publication 501: http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p501.pdf In the year a child reaches age 19 (or age 24 if a full time student), the child is no longer a "qualifying child" (unless completely and totally disabled) but might still be a "qualifying relative." The requirements to be a qualifying relative are much harder to meet than the qualifying child requirements.


Should a 17-year-old student who lives at home file taxes on his own or with his parents?

Under tax law, as a student living at home, you are your parents' dependent for income tax purposes regardless of your income. Therefore, you are their dependent and they will get that exemption. You, however, can file your tax return and, assuming you have earned income (from a job) that you had income taxes withheld on, you will receive a refund. If you made less than the standard deduction for a single person, you will get all of your taxes withheld refunded to you. You must file a return if you had over just the minimum amount of income, regardless of your age. Read the discussions on that topic - who must file - here or at IRS.gov. Regardless of it you must, generally, especially if you have a very small income, even if it isn't required for you to file, it will be beneficial, so you should. (And obviously if you worked and received a W-2 so you had tax or such withheld, you want to file to get the refund!) If you are claimed as a dependent by someone else, you cannot claim the exemption for yourself too. And in fact, then the others (who presumably have a higher tax bracket than you), will probably have to pay (or you would have to pay) at the higher bracket.
