As your daughter is a full-time student under age 24, she can be claimed as your dependent if she doesn't provide more than half of her own support.
If your dependent daughter has income in 2023, you don't report your daughter's income on your tax return.
You can still claim her as a dependent if she did not provide more than half of her own support for the year and she was under 19 at the end of 2023 (or under 24 and a full-time student).
If she is 19 or older (or 24 or older and a full-time student), you cannot claim her as a dependent if she earned more than $4,700 in 2023.
If it has to be reported, at all, it goes on her own return. If your dependent daughter is under age 19 (or under 24 and a full-time student), she must file a tax return for 2023 if she had any of the following:
- Total income (wages, salaries, taxable scholarship etc.) of more than $13,850 in 2023.
- Unearned income (interest, dividends, capital gains) of more than $1,250.
- Gross income (earned plus unearned) exceeding the larger of $1,250 or her earned income (up to $13,850) plus $400.
- Other self-employment income over $400, including box 1 of a 1099-NEC
If your dependent daughter files her own return, she has to indicate in the My Info section of TurboTax that she can be claimed as a dependent by another taxpayer.
Even if she had less, she can file if she needs to get back income tax withholding. She can't get back Social Security or Medicare tax withholding.
