You are required to file Schedule C for 2018 if your net earnings from self-employment were $400 or more.

You do not have to file a Schedule C if you had neither self-employment income nor expenses, but that does not necessarily mean you do not have to file an income tax return (if you do have to file a return, you just do not have to file Schedule C).

No, you are not required to report to the IRS in that scenario.
