It's likely one of 3 issues:
1. Your Image Mode is set to Grayscale rather than RGB or CMYK.
2. The Layer Channel is set to Green or Blue and not RGB, which can make it seem like it's BW (for Image Mode set to RGB). If it's set to Multichannel, you can get the same problem if only the Alpha 1 channel is set.
3. If the image is a result of a scan, the scanner's setting is likely set to Grayscale and not Color.
First check the image mode - click on Image, Mode, then view the setting. Change it to RGB or CMYK depending on the project you're working on.
Next, check the Channel Palette (Window, Channels) and check that all channels are selected.
If it's not those, then check your scanner and make sure it's set for color output.
