where do I enter my qualifying person's gross income for 2022?

You do not enter that on your return.   You just answer the questions about your dependent in My Info.  You never enter a dependent's income on your own tax return.

MY DEPENDENT HAD A JOB

If your dependent has a W-2 for his after-school job, summer job, etc. you do not include the information on your own return. You can still claim your child as a dependent on your own return.  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.  (Supervise this closely or prepare it for him!)

If your dependent’s earnings were over $400 and were reported on a 1099Misc or 1099NEC then he must file a return and pay self-employment tax for Social Security and Medicare.

You might also want to use free software from the IRS Free File versions:

Qualifying person for what? You could have a qualifying person for filing as head of household, for the credit for other dependents, or for the child and dependent care credit, and perhaps for other things as well. But in general you do not enter the qualifying person's income. What kind of qualifying person are you talking about, and why do you think you have to enter the person's income?

@bflan-9010tax if you have a qulaifying person that worked, that income gets reported on THEIR tax return (assuming they have a requirement to file).  Presumably, if they are a qualifying relative, they had income of less than $4400 (2022) excluding social security, otherwise, they can't be your qualifying person.

@bflan-9010tax 

Do you mean a dependent? In tax-speak, a dependent and a qualifying person are two different things. A dependent is either a qualifying child or a qualifying relative, but we do not refer to a dependent as a qualifying person.

As previously stated, you do not enter your dependent's income in your tax return.
