What do you put on a tax form if your parents are claiming you as a dependent?
There's a box that's checked on Form 1040EZ in line 5 if you're filing your own tax return and your parents are claiming you as a dependent. But you leave the box blank (unchecked) if you're using Form 1040A or Form 1040. On those two forms, it's the box on line 6a and it's stated "If someone can claim you as a dependent, do not check box 6a." The point of indicating on your tax return that your parents are claiming you as a dependent is to make sure that you don't take an exemption for yourself, because your parents are claiming your exemption on their return.

How much can someone get for claiming an adult dependent on taxes?
Of course, they must be a "qualified relative" before you can even hope to claim them. It depends on your specific tax situation, but each dependent is worth +/- $750 of additional refund.
Can you file your son as a dependent if your mother filed you as a dependent?
You cannot claim any dependents if you can legitimately be claimed as a dependent by someone else. So if your mother legitimately claimed you, you cannot claim your son. But you should check the rules for claiming a dependent to see if your mother could also have claimed your son.
Your parent receives social security could you still claim them on your taxes?
Possibly. Receiving SS benefits does not by itself preclude claiming your parent as a dependent. But you still have to meet all of the other qualifications for claiming a dependent. SS benefits do not count toward the gross income limit for a qualifying relative if they are not taxable on the dependent's tax return. But if the parent spends the SS benefits on their own support, they count as money the parent spends on their own support. (You have to provide more than half the parent's support.) To see the other requirements for claiming a dependent, see page 11 of Publication 501: http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p501.pdf
Is it legal to carry a child as a dependent even if they pay all their own expenses?
If they live in your house, legally yes you can claim them. You can also claim a student in college as a dependent up to 21 years of age. So even if your student is paying their entire way, legally they can still be someone's dependent. When the child files their tax returns, they have to put that someone claims them as a dependent, or the IRS may look at why the guardian is also claiming them as a dependent.
What does impostor mean?
Someone claiming to be someone they are not.
