What type of income is it reporting? Why did you get it?

Summer job as class aide

1099-misc, not self employed

A summer job would generally be considered self-employment.  Self-employment income over $400 would require filing a federal return.   That link has the filing requirements for federal Form 1040.    I need to enter a 1099 - Am I Self-Employed?

 

If it is not self-employment income and that was the only income and you can't be claimed as a dependent on someone else's return, you would not have a filing requirement.  

 

How do I report income from self-employment?
