Should we file taxes for our adopted son who gets SSA benefits?
Our 9 year old adopted son’s biological mother died a few years ago, and he has gotten SSA benefits since. My husband checks every year whether we need to file for him but has determined we don’t need to. However, this year he found conflicting information about whether or not to file income taxes for him. One thing said if you only get SSA (which he does) don’t file. Another said file if unearned income is over $1,000 (which it is), to file. We are not sure what to do. Can you please advise? Thank you!
