Get your taxes done using TurboTax

If your dependent is your qualifying child dependent, it doesn't matter how much they made.  For a qualifying relative dependent, their income has to be less than $5,050.  If you child is over 19, (under 24 if a full-time student) and not totally and permanently disabled, they would be considered a qualifying relative dependent and subject to $5,050 income.
