Do I have to report income a child received in form SSA-1099, benefits from the death of a parent?

The parent(widower) has four children and all four children are under 18 and all received 1099-SSA benefits. do i need to report this income in the parent's tax return or not.
also one of the children received a 1099-Misc, income in box 3.

This income would be reported on the child's tax return

Ok, but what if the child is a minor.

Checkout the 1040 instructions - who must file.

The answer is the same (you had already stated the children were under age 18).

Do you know if minors need to file tax returns?
