This is her only income but then I found this info below while searching for some answers. Can someone help to confirm this if it's true? When I use the Turbo Tax tool to file for her, it indicates she owes $171 in tax. Is that self employment tax? Federal income tax?
"Even though there won't be any regular income tax on it, He has to pay self employment tax on it. If a dependent only got a W2 they don't have to file unless it's over 6,300. But you have to file if you got a 1099Misc no matter the amount. "
