If I am not required to file taxes since I am on SSA how do I move forward on the platform since I need to file for 2022?

I worked a few days so that is the reasoning for filing.

• if your W-2 income was less than the standard deduction (if you are over 65 and filing single, that is $14,700 for 2022), there is no requirement to file.  Your state requirement may be different.  If there were federal withholdings on the W-2, the only way to get it back is to file, but there is no requirement to do so (the IRS will happily keep your money!)

if you were a self-employed contractor and received a 1099-NEC, there is no requirement to file if your 1099-NEC / Schedule C income was less than $400.

If you wish to file a 2022 tax return,

you may have to use some other tax software that will e-File your return when it is not required to do so.

If you do not have any taxable income being reported on your federal tax return the it cannot be e-filed.  However, you can add $1 of interest income so that the return can be e-filed.

On the Form 1099-INT for received from use any name, in block 1 of the form enter $1,
