Medical Expense Line 33199

If I want to claim my medical expenses on my parents tax return on line 33199 do I have to file my tax return first for my parent to claim it on their line 33199?

No, you don't need to file your return first. However, your parents will need your net income for their return if they are claiming medical expenses paid for you and you are over 18.
