The Standard Deduction remains the same for everyone.
The Exemption amount, which was eliminated in 2018, is where any change would occur for a dependent claimed on another return.

Except for married people. And heads of household. And older people. And the blind. And dependents without sufficient earned income.
I don't know PTO but is the "You as a dependent" box checked on the front of the 1040? If not, work on fixing that first. If so, do you have sufficient earned income to get the full standard deduction?
