I filed for and received an extension for my taxes. Do I have to pay taxes if I didn't meet the minimum income requirements to file?
I can't find my Social Security statement re. payouts for 2022. How can I get this information?
Do I have to file if I did not meet the minimum income threshold for having to pay taxes?
If I have an extension how do I handle this if I don't have to file?
What income level is required to have to file a tax return. will I be expected to submit something if filed for and received an extension. Please let me know. Thank you.

@DSI thank you for your question. I think we should start at the end first. Just because you filed an extension does not mean you have to file a tax return if your taxable income is below the income threshold to do so. Furthermore, if you are below the income thresholds then you do not need to file a tax return.
See this to see if you are above the income thresholds by filing status:
Filing Status | Taxpayer age at the end of 2022 | A taxpayer must file a return if their gross income was at least: |
---|---|---|
single | under 65 | $12,950 |
single | 65 or older | $14,700 |
head of household | under 65 | $19,400 |
head of household | 65 or older | $21,150 |
married filing jointly | under 65 (both spouses) | $25,900 |
married filing jointly | 65 or older (one spouse) | $27,300 |
married filing jointly | 65 or older (both spouses) | $28,700 |
married filing separately | any age | $5 |
qualifying surviving spouse | under 65 | $25,900 |
qualifying surviving spouse | 65 or older | $27,300 |
