Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Since she filed her own tax return you do not enter any of her income information on your tax return.  I do not know if she qualifies as your dependent or not.  But to qualify you would have had to say that she qualifies as a dependent on some else's return on her return.  If you did that and she qualifies otherwise, then you would enter her personal information on your return as a dependent.  This is where you would enter that information:

If you need to revisit the Dependents section in TurboTax Online, here's what you do:

1. Open or continue your return in TurboTax, if you aren't already in it.
2. Select My Info in the left navigation.
3. Select the Add a dependent button if you need to add someone. Select the trash can icon next to the name of a dependent to remove them (we'll ask you to confirm removing them before we take them off your return).

Here is how to determine if your child qualifies as a dependent.

There are two types of dependents, each subject to different rules: 

• A qualifying child 

• A qualifying relative 

For both types of dependents, you’ll need to answer the following questions to determine if you can claim them. 

• Are they a citizen or resident? The person must be a U.S. citizen, a U.S. national, U.S. resident, or a resident of Canada or Mexico. Many people wonder if they can claim a foreign-exchange student who temporarily lives with them. The answer is maybe, but only if they meet this requirement. 

• Are you the only person claiming them as a dependent? You can’t claim someone who takes a personal exemption for himself or claims another dependent on his own tax form. 

• Are they filing a joint return? You cannot claim someone who is married and files a joint tax return. Say you support your married teenaged son: If he files a joint return with his spouse, you can’t claim him as a dependent. 

Qualifying child 

In addition to the qualifications above, to claim an exemption for your child, you must be able to answer "yes" to all of the following questions. 

• Are they related to you? The child can be your son, daughter, stepchild, eligible foster child, brother, sister, half brother, half sister, stepbrother, stepsister, adopted child or an offspring of any of them. 

• Do they meet the age requirement? Your child must be under age 19 or, if a full-time student, under age 24. There is no age limit if your child is permanently and totally disabled. 

• Do they live with you? Your child must live with you for more than half the year, but several exceptions apply. 

• Do you financially support them? Your child may have a job, but that job cannot provide more than half of her support. 

• Are you the only person claiming them? This requirement commonly applies to children of divorced parents. Here you must use the “tie breaker rules,” which are found in IRS Publication 501. These rules establish income, parentage and residency requirements for claiming a child.
