Yes, File 2007 Taxes
Question: My 27-year-old daughter is developmentally disabled, lives at home and works for a sheltered workshop. Her last years' earnings were $1646, no federal or state taxes withheld, just social security and medicare. She also receives around $1000 in SSI per month. 1) Does she need to file taxes? 2) Is she eligible for the up to $600 "rebate"? Thanks for your time. Sincerely, Tina
Answer: Yes, everyone must file 2007 taxes to get a rebate.
