taxes on gifts and dependancy ques.
I hope someone can help me...I have been looking everywhere to find out if I have to report my gift income. I received about $6000 in gifts last year, I am a student, and had no other income. My parents want to claim me as a dependent, but apparently they can only do this if I made less than a certain amount of money...Can anyone please tell me if I have to file a tax return, and do these gifts affect my parents ability to claim me as a dependent? Please ANY information would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You
