And the question is well asked by addressing income. Income, from many and virtually any source is what determines if a tax return is required. NOT age, if you worked, if you lived with parents, or went to school, or were married, or sick, or in bankruptcy, etc., etc., - INCOME of all types, from anywhere. The answer changes with many factors...age, disability, married or not, etc, and what may be defined as income, may not be what you expect, so looking at this link will help (for anyone): http://www.irs.gov/publications/p501/ar02.html#en_US_publink100041738 And now you fell into the trap of getting my words of wisdom! There are many reasons to file, even if you don't owe. The gov't provides many benefits to people based on the income (or lack) only if they file (last years incentive check is one of many examples). But, appreciate this - if the IRS (not known for being too concerned about anything or one than themselves) says you don't have to file...who do you think that normally benefits - you or them?

How much money do you have to make you have to file pa taxes?

You can file regardless of how much money you make. In fact you should file if you had any taxes withheld from your salary since that is the only way to get a refund. You probably want to know how much you can make before you *have to* file. The number in PA is astonishingly small. You have to file if you have at least $33 in taxable PA income.

How many years do you have to file your income taxes if you are getting a refund?

It doesn't matter if you receive an income tax refund or not. The fact is is you worked and had federal and state taxes taken out you would need to file your taxes every year. However, much depends on your filing status (single, married, etc) and how much you made that year on whether you would file. To be on the safe side if you had federal and state taken out of your checks you should file.
