I live in an apartment and do work on the grounds, I do not get a check the money is deducted?

The best thing to do is talk to a tax advisor. Call a tax place like h&r block. Or contact a state or government worker and ask them.

Also, I don't know much about "legal aid" but I heard they give advise.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
