Oklahoma: What is it asking for when it asks you to enter "Dependent Income"?

[shawnap2014]

This is in the State Return. I'm unsure if this differs between states, because there is no information with the questions.

Can you clarify which state this is for?

Oh! My apologies. Oklahoma.

Oklahoma has specific income requirements for dependents you are claiming.  The limits are (from the Instructions for 2021 Oklahoma Resident Individual Income Tax):

Chart B: Oklahoma Filing Requirements for Children and Other Dependents If your parent (or someone else) can claim you as a dependent, use this chart to see if you must file an Oklahoma return. You must file a return if your gross income exceeds the amount shown.

If your dependent earned income enter that amount and if they did not earn any income enter 0.
