There is no age limit to filing a tax return, it is based on income. If you are both still working, there is a likelihood that you will be required to file and part of your social security may be taxable.
See the filing requirements below.
The Gross income requirements for each filing status (If your income is below these, you don't need to file.)
The IRS increases the standard deduction amount for taxpayers who are 65 or older by the end of the tax year. As a consequence, the income threshold you use to evaluate whether you should file a tax return increases by $1,000. If your 65th birthday falls on January 1, you can take the larger standard deduction for the prior tax year since the IRS treats you as being 65 on December 31
