what age does Filing tax returns starts ??

Answer 1

If you think you should have filed but don't know if you did, you can call the IRS and ask them.

It's not a matter of age, it's whether you have income. If you didn't work and don't have any other income, then there's nothing to file a tax return on. A tax return is a form you send to the government showing your income and what tax you owe. If you've already paid in too much, then you get a refund, otherwise you pay what you still owe.

Answer 2

Contact the IRS and your home state's department of revenue to see if a tax return was filed for you since you are not sure if any were filed at all.

Tax return filings start when you have earned income and/or tax withholdings from your earnings.

Answer 3

Of course all this will be moot when the FairTax Act H.R. 25 passes and replaces all income taxes with a single sales tax on new items. The FairTax now has the support of hundreds of thousands, 72 congressional sponsors / co-sponsors, and 7 presidential candidates, and over 70 economists. See www.fairtax.org So tell your congressman to pass H.R. 25

In all likelihood, you will need to mail or fax in a form 4506-T. Get the form at the irs.gov web site.
