I am a married full-time college student who earned zero income in 2005.

Do I need to file? (State and/or Federal)

Are there any benefits to filing?

Thanks in advance!

If you earned ZERO income, you have no legal obligation to file.

However, if your spouse is earning money, you may want to file jointly with him/her or have him/her claim you as a dependent.
