    Have to file taxes with no income?
    Do you or can you file taxes for the 2008 year if you were not employed at all? I understand the last stimulus check was determined by tax filing status (if you did or did not). So I am not sure if another round of checks were to be distributed if I would get one without filing again.

    You will not get any recovery rebate even if you file. You must have minimum $3000 of eligible income.
