I worked for about 2 weeks at a job and made $980. Do I have to file that on my taxes?

Yes.   EVERY  2023 W-2 goes on your 2023 tax return.  Every one of those W-2's is being sent to the IRS by the employers----and your SSN is on them.  The IRS matches up the income you enter on your tax return with the income reported to them by your employers.

 

And.....enter them all on the same tax return.   They all go together on the same Form 1040.

It depends.  If you had no other income, then no, you would not need to file a return because your income is well under the standard deduction of $13,850.  If you have other income, then yes, you will need to include it on your return. If you file a return, all income from all taxable sources must be included on your return, regardless of the amount.
