I am guessing turbotax didn't ask the questions about using parental income because my daughter made so little that no matter what tax bracket we were in her tax would be less than the standard deduction. However, my friend WAS asked about their income for her daughters and was unsure what amount to use to determine tax bracket. I looked at the Tax bracket calculator and pointed her there. It used the taxable income and filing status. Hope that was the right info. Thanks.
