@ccchlfields  Student wages at tax exempt colleges are usually exempt from FICA tax.  For whatever reason, her college has determined that $4900 of her $6400 was not exempt. You'll have to ask them why. It probably has something to do with where she worked and on what.

 

MI and IN have a recprocal agreement on wages. She does not need to file a MI return.   "A general rule of thumb is to file Indiana state taxes if your income is $1,000 or more. When it doubt, it is best to file". https://www.in.gov/dor/4731.htm
