Get your taxes done using TurboTax

No, you aren't required to file if that is your only income.  Your per capita payment is ordinary income, not self-employment.  As a single taxpayer that is not someone's dependent, you are below the filing threshold.  You would have to file a return only if you had marketplace health insurance and received advanced payments for the premium tax credit, see chart below:  https://ttlc.intuit.com/replies/3302274

 

If the 1099-MISC were for self-employment, you would be required to file.
