The IRS has a quick quiz, Filing requirement - Do I need to file a tax return?  They also have Dependent - Who can I claim? Without knowing more, it sounds like you can claim and the child would not need to file but there are always details so taking the quizzes is the best thing you can do. The IRS updates them each year so you can check each year with the new rules.

It depends on how the commission is reported on tax documents. If the real estate agent receives a 1099-MISC that includes the full commission amount (both the agent's and the broker's share), then the agent can deduct the portion paid to the broker as a commission expense.    However, if the broker receives the full commission and then pays the agent their split, the agent would only report the amount received as income and wouldn't deduct the broker's portion.
