At what age is someone considered an orphan when his/her parent(s) die? For example, what if a 90 year old's parents die. Does he have the status of an orphan? What about a 20 year old?

1For what purpose or context are you asking? A person feels the pain of the death of his parents no matter what age he may be. – sabbahillel Feb 23 at 23:29

From this site,
They [are] considered orphans for the purposes of this mitzvah until they no longer require an adult to take care for them and they can handle their own affairs like other adults.
