If your daughter qualifies as your dependent (see Rules for Claiming a Dependent on Your Tax Return), you can claim her. Even if she has income, if she does not provide more than half of her own support you can claim her. She will have to file her own tax return if required.
An unmarried dependent student must file a tax return if her earned or unearned income exceeds certain limits. To find these limits, refer to "Dependents" under "Who Must File" in Publication 501, Dependents, Standard Deduction and Filing Information.
Even if she does not have to file a federal income tax return, she should file so she can get money back (for example, federal income tax withheld from pay or qualify for a refundable tax credit)
