When does a teenager file a tax return?

It is important to note that the law does not just exclude teenagers from tax payment on the  basis of age but on the  basis of the volume of earned or unearned income.

Now, A teenager must file tax returns when his/her unearned income is over $1,050, or his/her earned income is over $6,350. In this case Jill earning  $5,600 does not need to file a tax return.
