Deductions & credits

You do not report your son's income on your return. 

 

You can claim him as a dependent as he is under 19.

 

If his income is wages reported on form W-2, he is not required to file a tax return if he earned less than $15,750. However, if he had taxes withheld, he can file a tax return to claim a refund.

 

If he files a tax return, he has to indicate in TurboTax that he can be claimed as a dependent by someone else.
