Age. You have to stop claiming your child when she turns 19, unless she goes on to become a full-time student. In that case, you keep claiming the exemption until she's 24, as long as she meets the other qualifying-child tests. After a child reaches age 24, you can only claim her if she's completely and totally disabled.
As mentioned above, age is a factor in determining whether your child is a qualifying child for your tax return. If your child is a student or is disabled, then you can claim him or her as a dependent as long as your child is under age 24. Otherwise, the child must be under 19 years old.
