As Represenative Payee do I pay the taxes on my minor daughters SSA 1099

[williekingsbury]

Do I add my minor daughters ssa-1099 net benefits to mine or is her 1099 seperate

You do not enter a dependent child's social security benefits on your tax return.  If the child has no other income they do not report the benefits received on a tax return.

If the 18 yr child worked in the summer of 2015 do they have to put the ss benefit on their return?

Yes
