I've never had a job before, and my earnings were only $879, but it says I paid $22 state income tax and $10.10 federal income tax, so I have to file to get these back, right?

So do I go get a 1040EZ form and fill it out? (trying to remember stuff from finance class).

Theres like 4 little sections to my W2 form, one is federal and the other says i have to file that part with the local, city, state income tax return...??

Yes. Get your tax stuff. Depending on status you may not have to pay any tax on that.

Yes, if you file you will get state and federal back, since you didn't make a taxable ammount of income.
