I didn't have a job in 2019, or the years before. I was only a student. I started my job this year. What do I put for occupation?

If you had no income of any kind in 2019 then there is no reason or need to file a 2019 tax return.

 

If you have income in 2020 then you will file a 2020 tax return next year in 2021.

I had an income, but as a work study. What do I do?

All right. Thanks. Another question. What if I don't remember the year I started my work study, what is the best course of action

It does not matter when you started the program, what matters is the amount of income that you received in 2019 from the program.  Did you receive some type of income form to report your 2019 income, such as a W-2 or a Form 1099-MISC?

So, how were you paid if you have income in 2019?

Should I asked for all my w-2 from my school?

We were told that the school was taking care of our taxes, and we were paid through paycheck

Also, what do I put for " Did you Repay Any 2016 Hurricane Distribution in 2019?" if I didn't participated in it.
