It it was all regular wages, reported on IRS form W-2, you are not required to fie a tax return. The filing threshold for wage income is $6350.</P><P>If you were paid "under the table" or got a form 1099-Misc, instead of a W-2, you are required to file a tax return. The filing threshold is only $400, for that type of income. This is because you will have to pay social security tax on that income.</P> Wed, 05 Jun 2019 21:48:26 GMT https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/state-taxes/discussion/it-depends-on-how-you-were-paid-it-it-was-all-regular-wa/01/574902#M26248 Hal_Al 2019-06-05T21:48:26Z @Hal_Al  some states require filing at very low threshold... https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/state-taxes/discussion/hal-al-some-states-require-filing-at-very-low-threshold/01/574903#M26249 <A href="https://ttlc.intuit.com/users/d0aa577a-84a4-42c1-97c8-5c537bbd362c" target="_blank">@Hal_Al</A>&nbsp;&nbsp;some states require filing at very low thresholds.
