You live with your parents and you plan on getting married without telling your parents?

Why not just wait until you can move out of the house to get married?
It makes no sense to get married and still live with your parents and keep your marriage a secret. Is it for him to gain citizenship? I would question if you should marry him if it is.

You CAN be married and still have your parents claim you as a dependent IF they provided more than half of your total support and IF your 2009 income did NOT exceed $3,650.

Otherwise, you will need to confess your marital status to your parents come filing time next year.
