Your daughter will need to file CA if her income is more than the standard deduction for her. She will be able to reduce her income by the standard deduction. See CA instructions to see if she may qualify for any additional breaks.
A student may have additional income from scholarships or deductions from expenses. Education credits belong on your return, if you are claiming her as a dependent. See Pub 970 for education questions.
