I did not have a job in 2018. But I did go to school and I did have a child in 2018 and I also have a dependent that is 3 years old. Would I still need to file a return?

Why do you ask? Did you have some other source of income, since you didn't work? If so, from where?

Awesome. Thank you. I just didn’t want to get in trouble for not filing.

State aid is not earned income and is not reported on a tax return. If you have no other income whatsoever then there is no reason to file a tax return. You are not eligible for any type of tax credit based on earned income.

Still have questions?
