Not pregnancy related but when do I have to pay taxes or do I even have too right now. I'm 18 years old I'm 30 weeks pregnant and unemployed. I see friends my age with babies or almost due and they're like I loves getting taxes? I'm lost lol and confused

If you have earned any money in the last year, you have to file taxes. Deadline is usually end of April. Even if you didn't earn anything, it's worth filing just so there's a paper trail if you ever get audited.

Is there a certain amount that you have to pay if you've worked?

If you have worked in 2014 then you will need to file taxes.  You won't necessarily have to pay or may not get anything back. But next year, you will be able to claim your baby and usually you will get something back.

Not 100% but i think you still have to file your taxes... Although next year after you have your child there is generally a tax credit for having a dependent. Maybe call a tax specialist so they can give you accurate and professional answers.
