I’m an incoming freshman this year, and I just got an administrative assistant position at a hospital on Saturdays. I’ll be going to school full-time, but I plan on working through the week during the summer. How much money can I legally make without it affecting my financial aid package? Is there a certain amount of money you can make and not have to file taxes?

I’m on Financial aid too, and I generally try to keep my annual income less than $5000.

Ive heard its 6,000 for financial aid before it begins to affect the aid you could receive. As far as taxes go, you need to file always, but I made 3,500 as a soph in highschool and never filed-I was told that they wouldnt have taken anything because I made too little-So I guess you could make so little that you dont need to file, but if you do (which would be in your best interest) you would get a complete refund, even if thats only 50 bucks, thats worth filing your taxes.
