My son is 19 years old and a full-time college student. He had no earned income during 2020 since the pandemic curtailed part-time work opportunities. He did have distributions from his 529 Plan (529 of Alaska) paid directly to his university for tuition, fees, etc (totaling about $11k). His university has generated a 1098. He also had a few stock transactions in Robinhood. He filed a return in 2019 since he worked part-time that year. Does he have to file a return for 2020?
