Get your taxes done using TurboTax

@emine85 how much did you earn? 

 

if you were a W-2 employee and earned less than $12,950 (and that would include any unemployment benefits) , you are not required to file.

 

if you were a self-employed contractor (and received a 1099-NEC) and earned less than $400, you are not required to file. 

 

However, if you had federal tax withholdings on a W-2, even though you may not be required to file, the only way to get the withholdings back is to file.
