Do you have to file taxes if you get nothing back?

These restrictions are based on the amount and type of income you receive and whether automatic deductions will reduce your income below taxable levels.

The Internal Revenue Service expects you to send in a tax return if your income is more than a set threshold and, if you don’t, you could be subject to penalties.
