Tax refunds for low income workers may require filing
Some workers with low incomes and federal tax withheld may qualify for refunds but must file a federal tax return. The IRS notes that many do not file because earnings are under the filing threshold. Criteria cover single filers, married couples, and seniors, with thresholds from 2950 to 6200 depending on status. Part time workers should review Form W-2 and W-4 details to determine if a refund is due.
