Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Where is the $6,100 amount coming from?

For 2019, isn't it now 12,200 for a dependent earned income not to need to file a tax return? And excess scholarships considered earned income?  What is the 2020 amount?

 

I am getting ready to send my son off to college and he has a full ride for all costs ( including room and board), he will be my dependent, and I am wondering how much earned income he can have before he owes taxes on 2020.
