The requirement to file federal taxes hinges not only on your income, but also the source of it. This applies to your salary or wages, and also to income from other sources, such as investments and the sale of property. Before you decide whether or not to file, consult a tax professional.
If you are older than 65, you must file if your taxable income is over $11,200. To file as a head of household, you must have at least one dependent and not be married. If you use this filing status, you must file a tax return if you are less then 65 years old and have at least $12,500 in taxable income. If you are older than 65, the threshold increases to $13,950. Married couples can chose to file a joint return or two separate returns.
