So, did either one of you have a W-2 at all?





If you had zero other income, the only remaining question is whether your grants covered your tuition or if any of the grant money was used for living expenses (which makes it taxable).





If your income from W-2s is $0 and your taxable grant money is less than $17,900, you don't have a filing requirement and wouldn't get a refund anyway....
