Hi, tonihunter89,
I am assuming that the reason your daughter can't be claimed is that she's 19 or over (or 24 or over if she's a full time student and/or she's providing more than 1/2 her own support. Here's a great article to help her prepare for filing her first return.
It's important to note that if she cannot be your dependent, she also may not even have a federal/state filing requirement (although I suspect from your message you want her to file anyway, either to claim a refund or provide a residency paper trail).
Here is information on federal tax brackets for 2023 at the federal level (note, it's on taxable income, after the standard or itemized deduction).
As a part year Illinois resident, this is her filing requirement:
- a part-year resident , you must file Form IL-1040 and Schedule NR, Nonresident and Part-Year Resident Computation of Illinois Tax, if
- you earned income from any source while you were a resident,
- you earned income from Illinois sources while you were not a resident, or
- you want a refund of any Illinois Income Tax withheld.
Here is the filing requirement for Montana:
You must file a Montana Individual Income Tax return if:
- You were a resident or part-year resident of Montana, or
- You were a nonresident who received Montana source income, and
- Your federal gross income, excluding unemployment compensation, meets the Montana filing threshold.
You should file a return if you had Montana tax withheld from your paycheck or if you paid estimated income tax, even if you aren't required to file a return.
Hope this helps!
