That depends.....were you a W-2 employee or self-employed?   Are you single or filing a joint return with a spouse?  Was tax withheld from your pay----do you want a refund?

 

Who has to file?

If you were single and earned less than $12,950 reported on a W-2 you are not required to file, but you will not get a refund of the amounts in box 2 or box 17 if you do not file.
