You lived off your wife? What, is she a cow?
Why aren't you filing a joint tax return? You'll probably end up with a higher refund/lower tax than filing separately. Even if you only earned $280 and mooched the rest.

If you earned more than $400 in Self Employment income, you MUST file. Being paid in cash is STILL income and it must be reported.
There is no "home heating credit" in Federal law.

You earned income, you need to file. Your employer should have given you a 1099. If not, just report the amount and attach an explanation as to why you don't have the 1099.

Yuo are supposed to report any form of money that you earn, whether it be a full time job, or one on the side. Last year I did the same. I worked part of the year, and then I was off, so i only filed the part that I was employed...I'd call a profesional and ask it anonamously over the phone

If you were paid "cash" you file a return. You had income! ALL INCOME IS REPORTED ON A RETURN.
