As a single person you earned 600.00 as an employee do you need to file taxes?

If this was your only source of income (no bank interest? no investments? no pension? no unemployment compensation?), then you do not have to file a federal tax return unless you had unreported tips,you had uncollected Social Security tax on tips, you got advance EIC payments, or you received the wages from a church group that is exempt from Social Security.

You may have to file a state tax return, depending on which state you lived or worked in.

If any taxes were withheld, you will forfeit your refund if you don't file.
