Maybe. If you have income from other sources (dividends, interest, capital gains, royalties, distributions from a partnership or trust, etc) you may be required to file.
If you have income from sources other than work, yes. Other forms of taxable income include interest, dividends, investments, rents collected, royalties, capital gains, pension, sometimes Social Security, etc.
It is very important that the self directed investor understands the difference between dividends and interest.-Dividends- Dividends are generally paid to shareholders of a publicly traded company.-Interest- Earning interest would be from loaning your money. If you put your money in the bank or buy bonds you are actually loaning your money.The single most important reason for knowing the difference is tax. Dividends are taxed at a different rate than interest earned. It is suggested to seek professional accounting advice on how these tax rates affect you.

Yes. ALL deferred annuities offer a guaranteed minimum interest crediting rate (although in a few contracts, that rate is zero). And all non-variable immediate annuities calculate the annuity payments using an assumed interest rate, so one could say that that rate is actually "guaranteed" (as the payments are). Some deferred annuities will accept only a single premium, and they're called "single premium annuities". Others will accept recurring premiums and are usually called "flexible premium annuities. Immediate annuities typically do not permit recurring premiums.
First you should consider whether or not an immediate annuity is something that would really benefit your needs. Retirement is a good reason. There are many online sites that would help find competitive interest rates. http://www.FreeAnnuityRates.com/annuities/article.php?title=How-to-Compare-Annuities
