@Carl  great information, very impressive, small correction. If the scholarship/grant exceeds by less than 2100, they may still have to file a return as the amount falls into kiddie tax rules and needs to be reported as income, regardless of tax liability.  Yes, it still won't be taxable until it exceeds $6,350. Reporting requires taxable scholarship be included in the kiddie tax, although the standard deduction will offset up to $6350 (assuming no other unearned income or earned income gets added in).
