It does not go on the parent return. Does the child have other income?

1) Stop yelling.  It's late March, and early Monday a.m.

2) It goes on the kid's return IF the kid has to file.

That's what George was trying to get you to think about with his question.

It does not go on the parent's return.. always look at the social security number that is on the reporting form.   What i do is staple it inside their folder behind all their w2's  and 1099's so they have it in safe spot incase they ever need to report it for any other situation ( such as HEAP or food stamps  etc...) That way all the household income is in one folder.
