关于报税和IRA： We often get the question: "Does my child need to file a tax return to make a Roth IRA contribution?" The answer is "no". If their taxable income is below the threshold that would otherwise require them to file a tax return, they are not required to file a tax return just because a Roth IRA was funded in their name.
the employer should give you two forms one w4 form and one exempt form you can just fill out them according to the rule. check out here: https://www.irs.gov/help/ita/are-my-wages-exempt-from-federal-income-tax-withholding
如果只有3千块的W2收入不用报税。如果是1099收入超过了400，要报税的。 A minor who earns tips or makes more than $400 in self-employment income will typically have to pay Social Security or Medicare taxes, regardless of their total earnings.
小孩大学申请aid， 肯定要看父母的收入了，怎么可能只看小孩的那点小钱
有出处吗？好像只有家长给孩子发工资才没有payroll tax，从其他地方拿的1099也subject to self employed tax的。不知道对不对？
没有ssa，有交medicare, 还交了unemployment，我看了paystub, 15岁，公立学区的part time，工资单应该不会处理错
dependent的收入完全可以自己单独报税，claim已经被别人作为dependent就可以了。如果发的w2，其实joint税表上就加不了dependent的收入。
唯一的问题是如果第一次单独报税，需要打印以后寄给IRS和州里。以后才能efile。让小朋友学习一下税表也没什么不好。

不对，第一次报税也可以e-file.
说过了，加到父母收入里报税是不对的。你的CPA错了。
小孩自己报收入就好了，不用加到父母收入里再报一次。
楼上的问题就自然解答了，小孩的收入不是按照父母的税率。
嗯，不用加，孩子的收入和父母无关。我女儿的W2直接没扣税，她也就没交税表。
