<prompt> Human: My roommate filed herself as a dependent, but her dad didnt claim her. She only received half of her tax refund because of this. What should she do to fix this?  <response>: If she can legally claim herself she provided her own support during the year, etc., she needs to claim herself. Her dad cant claim her if she isnt legally a dependent. She can file an amended tax return to get the rest of her money.
