My daughter is a college student and earned about $3,000 at school. Over the summer she worked at a place that paid her $6500, totaling $9500. Neither employer withheld any taxes. The second employer reported the income on a 1099-MISC form.
According to the IRS website, I don't think she even needs to file, but TurboTax keeps calculating that she owes $906!
So what's going on? Do I misunderstand the rules or is TurboTax broken?
Thanks!
