<prompt> Human: I am currently working as a sex worker, along with several other jobs. Someone told me today that, if I am claimed as a dependent which I am, I will have to disclose all income to my parents so they can file it on their taxes. Is this true, or can I file myself?? I have been doing my taxes myself for the past couple years, but I was not a sex worker, so my parents having access to income records would not be a problem. I am EXTREMELY worried about this.Edit: thank you to everyone who has commented - I feel a lot better now. I wasnt able to find any info online about my situation, so I greatly appreciate your help!!  <response>: Them filing you as a dependent does not give them special access to your records. You should either tell them not to claim you as a dependent or give them accurate totals for everything, leaving out the details of how you obtained that money.Id recommend doing your own taxes.
