A taxpayer has a dependent that earned less than the 12200 so she does not need to file her own return. However, she earned about 1300 of income in the summer. Does that need to be reported on the parent's return?

Dependent's earned income gets reported on dependent's tax return, if they are required to file. Only certain limited amounts of dependent's unearned income can be reported on parents' return.
