s About Taxes)/Minor looking to get taxes back Advertisement Expert: Helen P. O`Planick, EA - 1/13/2008 I am 16 years old, I work for McDonald's and am looking to get my taxes back. The only problem is, I am not sure if I can do it since my grandparents claim me. But they might not make enough this year to file(My Grandma is disabled, and my Grandpa is retired). I asked my boss and she said if they claim me as a dependent, I can file my own taxes if I have my own W2. I am not knowledgeable in taxes at all, but I was wondering is there any way if my grandparents file taxes, that I can get mine back?

Unless you made over $5000+, you should get all your federal withholding back and maybe your state taxes. You cannot claim yourself, either your grands claim you or no one does.

File form 1040EZ and do NOT claim yourself as a dependent. And check your state laws.
