It depends on your MAGI also called provisional income(50% of your SSDI plus tax exempt income plus foreing tax credit(if you have)); the base amounts are $32K for married couples filing jointly; as yo only receive $30,660 then your MAGI is lower than $32K, you do not need to pay tax on your SSDI.
so unless you are subjecrt to tax refund from IRS/ State,you do not need to file your 2013 return
