I received form SSA-1099 for myself for 2022.  I also received one that was addressed to both myself and my dependent, however, the dependent's name is in Box 1 of the form.  The dependent did receive a W-2 for 2022.  Where do I report the dependent's Net Benefits in Box 5?

    If all your dependent had for income was from an SSA-1099, they would not have a filing requirement. Keep the form for your records, but you do not need to report it anywhere.

    1.  The 2022 form SSA-1099 for my dependent was addressed to both myself and my dependent.

    2. Box 1 of that form only has my dependent's name in it

    3. My dependent worked in 2022, so she received a W-2

    4. Both my payment and my dependent's payment are received at the same time every month into my bank account.

     

    Where do I need to report my dependent's SSA-1099?

     

    Thanks!

    @MxVRacer The dependent's SSA-1099 is only reported on her tax return.  In box 3 of the SSA-1099 will be her Social Security number.

    She completes a tax return reporting both her SSA-1099 and the W-2 on her tax return.  If she can be claimed as a dependent on your tax return then she Must indicate on her return that she is a dependent.

     

    However, if she is age 19 or older, not a full time student and her gross income in 2022 is $4,400 or more (Social Security benefits do not count) then she cannot be claimed as a dependent on your tax return.
