Technically a new paragraph can be started whenever, but ideally a paragraph is about 7-9 sentences long. If the sentences are short or basic, then a few more sentences should be added to complete the topic or idea before starting a new paragraph. A paragraph can also be 1 sentence long if it is a dialogue.

In general skipping one line after the last line of print is fine. You may be following a special set of directions, like the Publication Manual for the American Psychological Association, in which case you need to do whatever the applicable protocol calls for.
