Far as I know, you have to file by paper, but I could be wrong. I've not been in this situation and that's the only solution I can think of. In the future, I recommend filing even if you only make a grand (even though you aren't required). At the very least, you could start a free tax file online and see if you're owing or not and bail out if you owe before you actually file, if you wanted to go that route. You probably wouldn't owe, though. I've never made *that* little, but I've never had to owe as a low-income employee either (lowest point being about 9.5k). But I'd recommend always filing no matter what, of course. I always have, and things have always been both beneficial and smooth.
