Get your taxes done using TurboTax

If you didn't have any earned income, and didn't have enough unearned income (interest, dividends, capital gains) to be required to file, there's no reason to file.  You could file a tax return, but you won't receive a "refund" as you didn't have any income and wouldn't qualify for any tax credits.
