Tax Checksincome
I'm a student with side income - does it change anything?
Low income doesn't mean low risk.
Is this you?
- I'm a student
- I earned side income
- I assumed credits covered everything
"Students don't really pay tax."
Side income can affect credits, benefits, and future filings even if no tax is owed today.
Why guessing is risky
- Unreported income affects tuition credits
- Benefits may be recalculated
- Issues surface later
Safe to ignore if
- No side income existed
- All income was reported
Stop and check if
- Side income was earned
- Credits or benefits were expected
