If you are required to file a tax return, then all investment income needs to be reported on your tax return.

A dependent with $850 in investment income must file a tax return. A dependent with wages has to file a tax return with investment income of $300.

Nondependents have to file only when total income exceeds a much larger amount (for example, $8,750 if single).

If your only income is $100 of investment income you do not have to file a tax return, report the income, or pay taxes.

If it's your only income, no you do not need to report it. If you already have enough other income that you need to file a return or if the investment income plus your other income exceeds the filing requirement amount for your filing status then you must claim all of it regardless of the amount.

You are required to report any income no matter what the source or the amount...well assuming the you have enough income to be required to file a tax return.

You will receive a 1099-DIV for profits received, and yes, you should report it.
