Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (2017) eliminated personal exemptions, but prior to that law, a taxpayer could request a tax exemption for every person that lived with them as dependents. But in this case, Charlissa is probably included in her parents tax return as their dependent, so she cannot claim any type of exemption.
