SSDI and child

If receiving SSDI and my child since under 18 also receives monies , do we report this amount under childs name and if so where on turbo tax or we dont? does it have to be a certain amount??Also if child works does that have to be filed or does it depends on amount? if hardly no tax taken out do we still have to file on childs work?

Your child should run through this quick quiz, preferably with you, to see if filing is necessary, Do I Need to File a Tax Return?

SSDI may be taxable income. See Regular & Disability Benefits | Internal Revenue Service.
