Key observational constraints for jet models in T Tauri stars are outlined, including the jet collimation scale, kinematic structure, and ejection/accretion ratio. It is shown that MHD self-collimation is most likely required. The four possible MHD ejection sites (stellar surface, inner disk edge, extended disk region, magnetosphere-disk reconnexion line) are then critically examined against observational constraints, and open issues are discussed.
