Thank you so much for the reply. He only has his W2 and a $700 payment from a non-profit for teaching a course over the summer as the 1099-NEC. He did also get a 1098-T from the college for his scholarship for $4448.00 that we entered as well. So I bet that scholarship is the "unearned" income. Didn't even think of that! I will check the 1099-NEC in the morning as to how I entered it.
And yeah I had no capital gains or losses and that box is NOT checked on my 1040. So if we do need to fill in the "kiddie tax" section due to his scholarship...ill leave those fields blank.
Also for the 1099-NEC, he uses his name as the business and the address as his own correct?
Really appreciate the help! 🙂
