I work two part-time jobs in Boston, MA and I have no idea how to go about filing taxes for them. What forms do I use? Is there a city tax for Boston? Any information would be so helpful!Can anyone give me any information about filing Massachusetts State Taxes as a college student?You would need to file MA Form 1.
Go to the link of the MA Dept. of Revenue below to download the form.
Easier still..
Buy one of the many tax softwares available at various stores as they include both the Federal and state returns. It's easier to prep and file your own return if you feel comfortable doing so.
There are even places online that offers FREE online tax filings for people such as yourself who appear to have "simple" returns.
Check out the IRS website to see if they list any tax prep companies that will file a return free. They may charge you a small fee for the state return or for efiling, though.
Boston does not impose a city tax. You would just file a federal return with a state return.
You would also need to find out whether or not your parents are claiming you are a dependent (generally, parents do claim their college-bound children as dependents on their tax returns). This would affect how the dependency exemption is claimed.
