Turbo Tax is saying my childs 2020 PFD ($992 unearned dividend income) needs to be reported (see below). This is their only income for the year. When I follow the directions (below) it asks "Is your child required to file a return for 2020?" I click "No" because they're NOT required to file a return as this ($992 dividend) is their only income and is less than the $1,100 threshold. After clicking "No" the next page says, "Since your child is not required to file a return, we wont report his or her income on your return."
So they're not required by the IRS to file their own return and Turbo Tax will not let me report this income on my own return but I am still supposed to report it??? What do I need to do here? Please help.
