<p>Q32 of FAFSA: For 2007, have you completed your IRS income tax return or another tax return (question 32)? </p>
<p>If my parents include me in their filing (1040) and I do not file separately,
is the answer to Q32 simply: "Not going to file" ...?</p>
<p>Could someone who has experience with this please help?
:)</p>
<p>yes if your parents claim you as dependent then you put not going to file under your student status.</p>
<p>We claim our daughter as a dependent but she also does a tax return in order to get a tax refund on her earnings.</p>
<p>But if you are not required to do a tax return (earnings over a certain amount require it even if you are claimed as a dependent) and do not have any tax paid that you would like refunded then just answer not going to file.</p>
<p>Whoa!! Some students DO file taxes and some do not. IF you plan to file a tax return, you either check "taxes completed" or "will file". If you don't plan to file taxes then you indicate that. It doesn't matter if your parents declare you as a dependent or not...you can still file your own taxes. In fact, many students do so to get back the money that was sent to the federal (and state) governments which they actually do NOT owe because they just didn't earn enough.</p>
