As a medical student in a Midwest state. But I did summer research/seminar presentations in new York for stipend of $3200 for a hospital. They have not given me any tax documentation. I do not have any other income. I do receive loans to pay for tuition for med school in the state where my college is located. I don't know where and how to report this $3200 of stipend/scholarship from New York. Also, would I also have to do taxes for New York or for the state of my college? Thanks in advance.

You will need to report this a self-employment income.  You can claim expenses as deductions from this income, such as travel expenses and lodging costs.

You do not need to file a NY tax return as your gross income is less than $8,000 (if you are single).

What state do you live in and I can check the filing requirements for that state.
