Finished my joint tax return. My 18 year old daughter wants help seeing if she needs to file. Can I use same program or do I need to buy a separate one to do her taxes?

She only works one day a week, but does have a FORM 1041 Schedule K-1 for a Grandchildren's Trust

In order to start a return for another family member, you will want to set up a separate TurboTax account for each return that needs to be filed. Only one tax return can be filed per TurboTax online account.

Follow the steps below to create a new TurboTax online account:

The IRS requires a tax return to be filed for your daughter if she has:

• unearned income was over $1,050
• earned income was over $6,300, or
• earned and unearned income together total more than the larger of (1) $1,050, or (2) total earned income (up to $6,300) plus $350.
