Question

I have a unique situation in which I live with my aunt. She pays for housing and food at home. Everything else I pay. Am I considered supporting myself?

I am a fulltime student with a part time job.

I don't know the exact details, but if your aunt pays for Housing, Food, Rent/Mortgage, Heat, Lights etc. I suspect that she supports you.

However, she can choose tor you to not be her dependent.

This may not be wise.

Your aunt can choose not to claim you as a dependent
