Your son will probably receive a W-2 or a 1099-MISC for his internship
work.
You should not include your son's wages on your
return. He should file his own return if necessary.
If children are still considered your dependents
they must file if:
- Their unearned income is greater than
$1,050 (like interest and dividends);
- Their earned income is greater than
$6,300 (from a job, reported on a W-2); or
-
They received a 1099-MISC and their net earnings
from self-employment was at least $400.
If you are unsure of whether you need to file, try this IRS tool: Do I
Need to File a Tax Return?
If your son files his own return, be
sure that he checks the box that says he can be claimed on someone else's
return. That is very important.
Your TurboTax online login is only good for 1 return. But you can
use the same email address for 5 accounts. For more information see: How
do I start another return in TurboTax Online?
