Be sure on their return they check the box that says they can be claimed on someone else’s return. If their only income is W2 and under 13,850 they do not have to file a return except to get back any withholding taken out.

No, you do not have to declare your 19-yr old daughter's income in your tax return. She needs to file her own tax return and declare her own income. If she does not have to file, then she might want to file to get a refund of any federal taxes that her employer withheld.
Thank you for your question.
