Does a 17 year old student have to file
    Best answer by Celery63
    There is no age limit on filing a tax return, and student status is not relevant. If he made enough to be required to file, or if tax was withheld and he wants a refund, he has to file. You can find the filing requirements for a dependent in IRS Pub. 501
