He has to file his OWN return; it doesn't go on his parents return.

And since it sounds like you are new to professional tax preparation, make sure you don't forget to mark that he is being claimed by someone else.

@abctax55 too kind 🙂

@arth-taxes Unless the kid has any withholdings that he wants back I wouldn't bother.

If at first you don’t succeed…..find a workaround
