As a frequent contributor here, I must first apologize for my last response to a combat pay question. I messed that up bad. The whole military pay topic sub catagories like combat pay, which also has many subs and ifs...is a tax world unto itself. I believe the answer to this Q is that you can elect to have it count to EIC. Now I'm not sure that means it's already excluded from CTC already....again a lot of this pay is excluded way before those calcs. There is certainly enough possibilities with this special income to either get software which probably leads you through it, or if using a service, try and chose one near a base that may deal with many of these. (Like a return with farm income & benefits is uncommon to the tax trade in a big city).

If a 14 year old child works babysitting afterschool and is paid cash 1500 or less per year does he have to file taxes does his parent have to claim his income on their taxes?

A child that has only earned income of less than $5350 for 2008 does not have a filing requirement nor do you have to report his or her income on your tax return and you can still claim him or her as a dependant. If, however, your child has other sources of "unearned" income (such as interest on a savings account, dividends, etc.) then the child may have a filing requirement. To figure out if the child with earned and unearned income has a filing requirement follow these steps: # Add $300 to the child's earned income. _______ # Minimum amount. _$850__ # Compare both amounts and enter the larger amount. _______ # Maximum Amount. _$5350_ # Compare lines 3 and 4 and enter the smaller amount. _______ # Enter the child's combined income (earned & unearned)_______ # If line 6 is more than 5 then there is a filing requirement. Hope this helps. www.irs101.blogspot.com
