Form 8615 is used to report tax for Certain Children Who Have Unearned Income. Unearned income includes taxable interest, ordinary dividends, capital gains, rents, royalties, etc

To Edit form 8615:

  • Login to your account.
  • Select Federal from the left Menu.
  • Select Wages and Income then Income and Expenses.
  • Scroll down to Less Common Income.
  • Scroll Down to Child's Income (Under 24)

How do I have TTax pull in the data from the parent return?  I am having to look up parent form data and manually transpose it into the Child return to complete 8615.   Why??

This feature is not available in TurboTax.  You will need to manually enter the information.
