I earned $2,600 in Massachusetts in 2024, and according to Mass.gov, you only need to file taxes if you make over $8,000. Should I still submit a Massachusetts state return? I mistakenly only filed a return for the state I relocated to halfway through the year, and I want to ensure I don’t run into any issues.

Made $2,600 in Massachusetts in 2024. Mass.gov says you only need to file taxes if you made over $8,000. Do I still need to file a MA state return anyways?

If you earned $2,600 in Massachusetts and the filing requirement is $8,000, you are not required to file a Massachusetts state tax return based on that income. However, if you are concerned about potential issues or complications from your move and the fact that you only filed a return in your new state, it might still be a good idea to file a MA return, even if it’s just to report your income and clarify your situation.
Filing could help you avoid future issues, especially if there are any questions about your residency status or tax obligations. Additionally, you may be eligible for certain credits or refunds, even if you are not required to file. If you’re uncertain, consulting with a tax professional could provide peace of mind and guidance tailored to your specific situation.
