I need to know how much i am possible to get back from me working

If you are under 18 and claimed as a dependent on your parents return, if you made less than $6,350 you will get everything you paid in back.

If you made more than $6,350 the amount you earned over that will be taxable income.  So, if you made $8,350, you will have taxable income of $2,000 which will be a tax liability of about $200.  So if you paid in $500, you would get $300 back.  

If you didn't have any taxes withheld you will not get a refund. 

The best way to get the final answer is to enter your information into TurboTax.

The $6350 refers to Federal W-2 wages. If you got cash or 1099-MISC income, the answer is different.

And State taxes may be different as well.
