For the 2025 tax year (taxes filed in 2026), single individuals under 65 generally must file a federal tax return and may be taxed if their gross income is $15,750 or more.

The minimum income amount to file taxes depends on your filing status and age. For 2025, the minimum income for Single filing status for filers under age 65 is $15,750 . If your income is below that threshold, you generally do not need to file a federal tax return.
