If you are a dependent on another taxpayer's income tax return and you have 950 or more of unearned income you would be required to file a income tax return.
You can file up to 2 years back taxes.
You do not have to file a joint tax return if you are married. Each year you may elect to file separate or joint. If you file separate, the children you have can only be claimed by one spuse, but the children may be split between the two returns if you choose. Other things like mortgage interest paid can only be claimed by one spuuse. By filing separate you will generally owe and pay more taxes than filing Joint.
Yes, you do, if your employer prepares one for you.
it depends on how you file your W-2
There are separate forms for each year. Each year's taxes must be accounted for separately and filed separately.

If by early, you mean before December 31st, the answer is no. You cannot file your income taxes in the US until that year's income tax forms become available, which is generally late December or early January. Also, you will not receive your annual forms for employment (W-2), contract work (1099-MISC), or unearned income (interest, dividends, proceeds from stock sales, etc.) until some time in January. You should not file your income taxes until you receive those forms so you can be sure to report the correct data on your tax return.
I have received 2,000 each to 2 of my children.

five unearned runs.
You file the 1099 just as you would if you received a W-2. You must report all of your earnings when you file your taxes.

Legally yes.... you have to file taxes if you are paid in cash... Many times even cash payments are reported to the IRS via a 1099 form that the person/employer who paid you the cash will file,you would receive these 1099 forms just as you would the W-2 forms for standard taxes.... If you receive no 1099 form then you have to file as self-employed and still report your income.....
No...W-2 are only for people who are employees (so an employer has withheld taxes from their paycheck and contributed to FICA on their behalf, etc). Essentially, anyone with income (self employed, investment, etc) needs to file. If you are an employee you need a W-2 to correctly file and get credit for the amounts already paid on your behalf...and very possibly, a refund.
