Student taxes

Colleges and Universities A-Z Smith College

<p>This is kind of a stupid question but on BannerWeb, it says that Smith is waiting for taxes -- my parents' ones are filled out and going to be sent out. However, there is a section that still says "Requested, Still Outstanding" for a students' taxes section ... but I don't have a job. Should I put a note that says that I don't do taxes/have a job or am I just supposed to ignore it? I guess I'm sort of confused. I thought that they would know that I don't have any taxes since I left entire sections blank for CSS and FAFSA profiles.</p>

<p>On a completely unrelated note, I almost typed KAFKA instead of FAFSA. Been on a bit of an existential binge lately.</p>

<p>If you're confused, the best people to contact are Student Financial Services. I'm sure that some of the parents on here can give you some advice based on experience, but for a specific question like that, it's best to take it right to the office that's dedicated to financial issues.</p>

<p>If you, the student, have not filed taxes, I think they're looking for a simple non-filer's declaration. Iirc from last year, it's on a from you can download from the Smith website. Not there yet this year.</p>

<p>And the FAFSA...and even more so the Profile...can certainly seem Kafkaesque at times.</p>
