<p>I did not work last year. So I did not file taxes. Do I need to file taxes in order to get a pell grant since I didn’t work?</p>
<p>No. If you were not required to file taxes, you do not need to do so in order to receive federal financial aid. If you are required to file, you must do so to receive aid.</p>
<p>If you are selected for verification, the school will request a copy of your tax return. If you do not have a tax return, the school will have a non tax filer form for you to complete, instead.</p>
