What is a 8615 form


Form 8615 must be filed for anyone who meets all of the
following conditions.
1. You had more than $2,100 of unearned income.
2. You are required to file a tax return.
3. You were either:
   a. Under age 18 at the end of 2018,
   b. Age 18 at the end of 2018 and didn’t have earned income
       that was more than half of your support, or
   c. A full-time student at least age 19 and under age 24 at the
      end of 2018 and didn’t have earned income that was more than
       half of your support.
4. At least one of your parents was alive at the end of 2018.
5. You don’t file a joint return for 2018.

These rules apply if you’re legally adopted and a stepchild.

These rules don't apply if neither of your parents were living at
the end of the year.
