Must you file an IRA withdrawal as taxable income if no tax owing results?

[marie40503]

Usual non-filer due to VA and SS disability income.  IRA withdrawal is not enough to produce taxable income.  Must this person file at all?

[SweetieJean]

Keep in mind that some of the SSDI might now be taxable.

You might want to file to get back any withholding taken out.

zero tax due is no excuse to not file

Filing required is based on your actual total income.

See IRS PUB 501 and your state rules for who must file based on your income and circumstances.
