My fiance made less than 4K. I was wondering since i claimed her as a dependent, does she still need to file her taxes seprate?

You should not claim her income on your return in any case.

If all of her income was W-2 wages, she is not required to file but may elect to do so to claim a refund of her withholding(s).

So i can claim her as a dependent and she can file her w2's and get a return?

Yes.  Be sure on her return she checks the box that says she can be claimed on someone else's return.  That is very important.

Online is only good for 1 return.  But you can use the same email address for 5 accounts.   How to start another return in the Online version <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/1894512-how-do-i-start-a-second-return-in-turbotax-online">https:/...>
