What is the maximum income a full time student can earn and still be taken as a dependent on a federal income tax return?

If the student is under 24 at the end of the year or is totally and permanently disabled, there is no limit. But the student must not provide more than half of his/her own support. Money deposited in a savings account (for example) does not count as support. Otherwise, the student's gross income cannot exceed $3500 and the taxpayer claiming the student on their return must provide at least half of the student's support.


Is there an income requirement to qualify for FAFSA loans?

FAFSA has five types of federal loans available; most have income requirements, but not all. The loans that have income requirements are the Federal Perkins Loan and Subsidized Stafford Loans. The loans that do not have income requirements are PLUS loans (parents, or graduate and professional student), unsubsidized Stafford Loans, and consolidation loans. If a student is a dependent of their parents, the parents income will count towards meeting income requirements. Loans that are not income dependent do require good credit. http://studentaid.ed.gov/PORTALSWebApp/students/english/index.jsp

For federal income tax purposes, some sellers/buyers ("broker/dealers") report purchases and sales of real estate as ordinary income, not capital gains. The theory is that you're not "just" an investor; your ordinary business is buying and selling real estate like any other commodity. Builders fall into that category in particular.
