It depends.  If you are being claimed as a dependent on another person's tax return (usually a parent), then it's possible you could owe tax.  If not, then you may have made an amount over the filing requirement which would create a tax liability.  There are more tips in the link below which may be useful when you review your return.

You may want to review your Form W-4 to see if you completed it they way you wanted to.  Walmart or any company uses this to calculate how much to withhold from each pay check.

You have the ability to preview your tax return before you file.

Using the Tax Tools:

  • To find Tools: 
    • Sign into your TurboTax account and open or continue your return. 
    • Select Tax Tools in the left menu. 
    • You'll find Tools beneath Tax Tools.
    • Select View Tax Summary
    • Select Preview My 1040 (left)
