Help with Aid!!

Can you explain further about the immigration status thing? Does you dad earn income in the US and file taxes? How about your mom?

You don’t have to pay $6300. $6300 is subtracted from all of your income(including taxable scholarship/grant amounts) and you owe a percentage of the remainder as tax). If it is legally true that no one can claim you as a dependent on their return, then the amount subtracted from your total income before the taxable amount is arrived at will be $10,300 for 2015.

Ok
