Thanks so much! Just to confirm, if my childs total income is below $12,400 (which is true) then there are no filing requirements with the IRS and no filing requirements for the State of Maryland.
I do have expense logs since they began college, and expanded that to flag which tax year these expenses are being reported. I needed to do this when the college was declining (until I sent my spouse after them) to give us a 1098T.
This is actually the 2nd year of college, but first full (2 semester) year. Learned a lot... a lot that I wish I didn't have to know! 🙂
