Everyone can file. There is no longer anyone alive who cannot file. There used to be one guy in the 1980s, but that was mainly because he had been kidnapped in Lebanon by terrorists who were holding him hostage and wouldn't let him go to the post office (in those days, you had to mail everything; you couldn't file online/electronically). When he died or was released (I don't remember which), the worldwide global total number of living humans who could not file dropped from one to zero.

As far as getting a refund, probably not. But even if you can't get a refund, it's worth filing just to show that you don't owe the government any money.

You have to file, because you have income - that's the law. What you get back, if anything, depends on a number of things. We can't just guess your circumstances and just the $885 a month doesn't tell us much.

If you worked in the year 2018 and were entitled to receive a refund you can still file a return and you should receive a refund. There are no penalties for not filing a tax return if you don't owe any taxes.

No.


Receiving a refund requires that you:


A)  Have paid in taxes (withholding); or,
B)  Qualify for refundable credits.

Is this your only income? If so, no you don't file at all (no taxes) & can't receive a refund since you pay in zero tax.
