If the unearned income from interest is not more than $1,150 the child does not have a reporting requirement.
It depends. In general, in 2022 the first $1,150 worth of a child's unearned income is tax-free. If your 5-year-old earned less than that, you don’t have to add his saving account interest to your tax return.
If it’s more, fill out a kiddie tax form.
