AGI is 26 dollars! Any reasons to file a student's return?

There's like 6 various 1099s.

The only real income is 8905 on the SSA-1099 (disabled student)

After the standard deduction, it says 0 for Federal refund and 0 refund from NJ.

Yes, it is possible that this return doesn't have to be filed.

Based on income alone, it is not enough income to require a tax return.

If any of the 1099s are self-employment income (1099-NEC, or 1099-MISC) in the amount of $400 or more, you have to file the return to show why the net self-employment income is less than $400.

If there is investment income of $2,500 or more and the filer is a dependent, you have to file a return.

When applying for financial aid, students may need to provide tax account information from their or their parents' tax return.
