Good question! If you did not earn any income from any source, you do not have to file a tax return.

Here is a link to a interview the IRS uses to determine if you should file or not. https://www.irs.gov/uac/do-i-need-to-file-a-tax-return Click the blue link that says begin towards the bottom of the page.


I truly hope this helps!
