While the minimum income - however earned - is $600, you don't actually owe any tax until a much, much higher amount. However, you should always file your return, even (or especially) if you have no tax payment obligation or even requirement to file. Simply, many benefits one receives, Earned income Credit, the recent Tax Stimulus Payment to name a few, require a return to have been filed. Do it.
