State tax filing

Thank you for your reply.   I  understand that if he can be claimed by myself (the parent) he would have to indicate that and he wouldn't be able to file independently.

 

What I am encountering is that he has provided his own support via stock capital gains, dividends etc of his own money.  However, TurboTax is saying that I have to claim him (or more specifically, he will be taxed at my rate) since he has no EARNED income.  is this correct?  is that the law?
