You don't include their income on your return. It would only go on their return if they are required to file one. To file a separate return for your dependent you need to set up a new account. Online is only good for one return per account. You can use the same email address for 5 accounts. They can probably use the Free Edition. How to start a new online return

Or the Free File website. In order to use the Free File program, you have to start it at a special website. Click on the Orange button I Qualify, Let's get Started
Be sure on their return they check the box that says they can be claimed on someone else’s return. If their only income is W2 and under 12,400 they do not have to file a return except to get back any withholding taken out.

why would you want to put another person's income -- other than your spouse's -- on your tax return ?
