Hello, do I add my dependent daughters income that is just over 3000?

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 from boxes 2 or 17 (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:

If she has earned income from work reported on a W-2 or from self-employment, that income is Not entered on your tax return.

She can file her own tax return and indicate on the return that she can be claimed as a dependent.

You do not add her income to your return. 

 Instead, if this is income from a job, and she had taxes withheld, you will file a return for her marking that she can be claimed as a dependent on your return so she can claim a refund for the taxes withheld.

If she did not have taxes withheld, and this was as an employee, then she does not need to file a return.

If she was self-employed, then she will need to file a return since the income is over $400.
