You can still claim your child as a dependent on your own return.&nbsp; He/she can file his own return for a refund of some of his withheld wages (he won’t get back anything for Social Security or Medicare), but MUST indicate on it that he can be claimed as a dependent on someone else’s return.&nbsp; (Supervise this closely or prepare it for him!)</P><P>If your dependent’s earnings were over $400 and were reported on a 1099Misc then he must file a return and pay self-employment tax for Social Security and Medicare.&nbsp; You may want to use this version of TT for that:</P><P> </P><P> <A href="https://turbotax.intuit.com/taxfreedom/" target="_blank">https://turbotax.intuit.com/taxfreedom/</A> </P> Tue, 04 Jun 2019 22:59:08 GMT https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/taxes/discussion/my-dependent-had-a-job-if-your-dependent-has-a-w-2-for-hi/01/451682#M185633 xmasbaby0 2019-06-04T22:59:08Z
