Are full time college students with jobs tax exempt?

No, you're not tax exempt.  However, depending on the amount of money you're earning while in school you won't pay that much in taxes.\n\nJust using 2005's rates and exemptions, HOH got an exemption of $7300.  Assuming you also got a personal exemption, your first $10,500 of income wouldn't be subject to income taxes.  In addition, for each additional child that you claim, $3200 more isn't subject to income tax because of the exemptions.\n\nIn addition, you're probably eligible to claim the Child Tax Credit, EITC, you'd probably get the hope or lifetime learning credits (tax credits for education expenses).\n\nHowever, without more information, it's tough to tell you more.

If he received a 1098 from his school, then he should claim it. With that said, almost all financial aid is tax deductible, so he should include it in his return but it won't count against him.

I got a job at the university I am attending.  Most places let full time employees go to school there for free. It means that I can only take classes part time, but I was not up for getting myself into more loans like I did when I was an undergrad, and I don't have enough money saved to pay full price.  \n\nYou've already checked into financial aid, I assume.  Grants are another good place to look.  Sometimes you can even get an award or grant from your undergraduate institution.

No. Federal Pell Grant is not taxable. Grants are not taxable, only earned income is taxable.

You earn money based in the state you are employed.  Many employees are expected to go out of state for training or conferences.\n\nIf you get millions (plus) for your JOB, then going out of state for that job is still taxable.  Be it a game or a desk job.\n\nYes, they need to pay state taxable income, if that state requires it. If they don't dig it, go to another state to play.

If you have come on a student visa there is strict restriction that you will not not seek paid employment and therefore you should avoid it else it is possible you might get deported. However if someone known to you pays you for a service you do for him it will be possible only if your name does not appear on any payroll. You have to be careful that you don't divulge this unofficial job to anyone lest they act as informers.

Check with your high school's guidance counselor's office. when I was in school, our school received phone calls from local businesses looking for cashiers, inventory clerks, office people, and other employees. Those employers were sensitive to the available hours that the students could work. The money wasn't great but the experience in business sure was. You have NOTHING to lose by asking about it. If that doesn't work out, look into your own business. Why not make 100% profits after taxes and expenses???

Yes (You are confused, a SSN is not a Work Permit)\n\nYou may be allowed to work on-campus or off-campus (after the completion of your first year of study) under limited circumstances.\n\nYou may also wish to discuss employment with the designated school official (DSO) at your school.\n\nHere are the laws about employment for students.\n\nNOTE: Section 214.2(f) is many pages long. I am only posting the Sub Section (9) Employment\n\nSec. 214.2(f) Students in colleges, universities, seminaries, conservatories, academic high schools, elementary schools, other academic institutions, and in language training programs -- \n\n(9) Employment -- \n\n(i) On-campus employment. On-campus employment must either be performed on the school's premises, (including on-location commercial firms which provide services for students on campus, such as the school bookstore or cafeteria), or at an off-campus location which is educationally affiliated with the school. Employment with on-site commercial firms, such as a construction company building a school building, which do not provide direct student services is not deemed on-campus employment for the purposes of this paragraph. In the case of off-campus locations, the educational affiliation must be associated with the school's established curriculum or related to contractually funded research projects at the post-graduate level. In any event, the employment must be an integral part of the student's educational program. Employment authorized under this paragraph must not exceed 20 hours a week while school is in session, unless the Commissioner suspends the applicability of this limitation due to emergent circumstances, as determined by the Commissioner, by means of notice in the Federal Register, the student demonstrates to the DSO that the employment is necessary to avoid severe economic hardship resulting from the emergent circumstances, and the DSO notates the Form I-20 in accordance with the Federal Register document. An F-1 student may, however, work on campus full-time when school is not in session or during the annual vacation. A student who has been issued a Form I-20 A-B to begin a new program in accordance with the provision of 8 CFR 214.3(k) and who intends to enroll for the next regular academic year, term, or session at the institution which issued the Form I-20 A-B may continue on-campus employment incident to status. Otherwise, an F-1 student may not engage in on-campus employment after completing a course of study, except employment for practical training as authorized under paragraph (f)(10) of this section. An F-1 student may engage in any on-campus employment authorized under this paragraph which will not displace United States residents. In the case of a transfer in SEVIS, the student may only engage in on-campus employment at the school having jurisdiction over the student's SEVIS record. Upon initial entry to begin a new course of study, an F-1 student may not begin on-campus employment more than 30 days prior to the actual start of classes. (Amended effective 1/1/03; 67 FR 76256) (Amended 6/10/98; 63 FR 31872) \n\n(ii) Off-campus work authorization -- \n\n(A) General. An F-1 student may be authorized to work off-campus on a part-time basis in accordance with paragraph (f)(9)(ii)(B) or (C) of this section after having been in F-1 status for one full academic year provided that the student is in good academic standing as determined by the DSO. Part-time off-campus employment authorized under this section is limited to no more than twenty hours a week when school is in session. A student who is granted off-campus employment authorization may work full-time during holidays or school vacation. The employment authorization is automatically terminated whenever the student fails to maintain status. In emergent circumstances as determined by the Commissioner, the Commissioner may suspend the applicability of any or all of the requirements of paragraph (f)(9)(ii) of th

It depends on the landlord.  Some will. Some will not. Many now have a ratio of rent to monthly income and require proof of employment.  Some will happily rent to students under these terms, others like mine, prohibit tenants from becoming full time students during a part of their lease.\n\nYou can simply call up their leasing office and ask, or contact an apartment locator and tell them your situation, they can help you find a complex that is happy to have students.

Yes.  It takes an incredible amount of time management.  It also can have an adverse effect on your grades, depending on that time management.  However, a benefit of working full time while going to college is in regard to companies which pay tuition advancement/reimbursement.\n\nI was able to complete graduate school with an "A" average, and get the best evaluations ever at my workplace.  It also required sacrificing two years of social events (smile).\n\nSo... it's possible, but requires a lot of work.

You cannot claim them as income...nor would you want to...that would cost you money. If you lived soley on these funds with no income you actually do not have to file taxes at all. If you have income less than $7950 then you're exempt from filing if you meet the following criteria:\n\n*****for the purpose of earned income credit, you can file even if you have less than what obliges you to file. EIC will begin to credit you at $1 earned, but it is a minimal amount ($10). The more income you can prove the more its going to increase until it starts to come back down. There are a number of special rules for eic but students aren't one of them. There are a number of things you may not have thought of for income for a student...I have listed it with the links below...\n\ngood luck
