Financial Aid help about Work-study?

If you filed a 2008 Federal Tax return and included your Federal Work Study earnings for 2008 as part of your income or part of your earnings that you are including on the FAFSA are from Federal Work Study, then you need to list the earnings in this question of the FAFSA. The reason that you are asked this question is so that when your FAFSA is processed the calculation does not include your Federal Work Study earnings. You use the value from box 1 of your 2008 W-2 form that you received from the school.
