Deductions & credits

Thanks for the quick response MinhT1.

Still not fully clear on this subject. Please clarify the following:

- I am getting from you that dependent child in my situation does not need to file. Then, Why does Turbotax tells me that the dependent child... "will need to file a tax return to include the $1200 amount taxable income"?

 

- Confused by point # 3: 1098-T, box 1: $6950, box 5:$8150. Does that mean dependent child needs to file?

 

Thanks
