Source income refers to which state the money was earned in. It literally means where the money comes from.

If you earned the money in New York, that would be New York source(d) income.

Are you referring to Survivors Benefit from Social Security?   That is Not entered on a W-2.

That is reported to the child on a Form SSA-1099 and is only entered on the child's tax return if they have other taxable income to report on a tax return.
