Do I qualify for a federal or state refund in OR with no earned income?

I have 3 dependents.

If you have no income of any kind to enter on a tax return there is no need to file a 2023 tax return since you will not be eligible for any type of tax credit the requires earned income from work, such as the child tax credit, the child and dependent care credit or the earned income tax credit.

No. All of the child-related credits are based on having income earned from working. If you did not work in 2023 you are not eligible for any refundable child-related credits. Is there someone else who can claim you and/or your dependents?
