The amount of income that requires you to file a tax return depends on your filing status, your age, whether or not you can be claimed as a dependent by someone else, and other considerations. The chart that DoninGA posted is for someone who cannot be claimed as a dependent.

You can use the calculator at the following link on the IRS web site to see if you have to file a tax return.
