You do not enter it on your tax return. Look at Box 2 of the SSA-1099 and you should see the child’s SSN.<BR />If that is the only income a child has, then the child does not have to file or report it either. <BR />If the child has enough other income to be required to file, then the child reports the SS on the child's return.
