I have been a caretaker for a family member for the year 2020, but they are not claiming me as a dependent. I have had no income, do I still need to file?

If you have no income in 2020, then you are not required to file a return for tax year 2020.

if you want your EIP1 and EIP2 but didn't get it, you must file.
