Caution: The federal income tax on your child’s income, including qualified dividends and capital gain distributions, may be less if you file a separate tax return for the child instead of making this election. This is because you cannot take certain tax benefits that your child could take on his or her own return. For details, see Tax benefits you cannot take in the instructions. | ||||||
