The answer

Zakat al-Fitr becomes obligatory upon you if you possess what exceeds your needs for the day of Eid by the amount of a sa', which is approximately three kilograms of rice. Often, someone in your situation finds enough for their needs and more, therefore Zakat al-Fitr is incumbent upon you.
