Get your taxes done using TurboTax

As volvogirl and xmasbaby 0 stated, you do not put your daughter's income on your return.  Your daughter can file her own return, and the W-2 will be placed on her return.  Depending on the amount of the W-2 will determine if she has a filing requirement.  However, if she does not have a filing requirement but has taxes withheld, she will need to file a refund for any taxes paid.  The filing requirement for 2022 is $12,950.

 

If your daughter files a return, you may still claim her on your return as a dependent.  You will want to ensure her return is filled out as being claimed by someone else as a dependent.  To be able to claim her as a dependent, she must meet the following requirements:

 

  • Under the age of 19
  • A US Citizen, US National, US resident, or resident of Canada or Mexico
  • Live with you for more than half the year
  • You provide more than half her support
