income by minor

[jyoung]

Just received my daughter's statement of yearly income from
SSA that I had filed for (I'm in Florida, CP does not share info with me, NCP re. 8 yr. olds acting career despite shared custody) Statement showed 1999 reported 15,000+, no income from previous years... the child's been working since she was three, is there a threshold to reach before
SSA is given numbers to report? I know from my own SSA statements that in early life when I made little money, it
still showed what income there was. Are these figures taken
directly from tax returns or from W2/1099 info? Can it be that no tax returns for the child were filed prior to '99
and can I use that as ammo in my battle to keep the kid from
moving to NY?

My response:

No. That's a problem between the parent and the taxing authority, having no bearing whatsoever on parenting skills.
