<prompt> Human: Pretty much the title. I have no clue what the requirements are  <response>: Filing rules for dependents are a little bit different than rules for those who arent. See Table 2 in Publication 501.If this was unearned investment income, you would have to file, because its more than 1000. If this is all earned income, you dont have to file because you earned less than 6200.However, if some federal taxes were taken out from your paychecks look in W-2 box 2 they could be refunded to you, since your actual federal tax is 0 and they shouldnt have taken any.The IRS wont send you your refund unless you file. So its up to you to decide.The IRS provides an online method to determine whether you have to file or not. You answer a series of questions. Start here: If you do need to file, it is very very likely that Form 1040EZ is the one for you to use. You can print it out and finish it in about fifteen minutes, Id guess.
