I'm 21, independent because of veteran status, made 6,000 last year but used it all for school, car maintenance, etc. Do you think I could get more than 3,000?

You can't get anything from FAFSA. That is a system to evaluate your financial situation in order to make recommendations to schools about how much you might be eligible for in scholarships or loans.
After you send in your FAFSA forms they have to be evaluated by a school financial aid office. The school will use the FAFSA report to decide what amount of aid to offer you. Every school does it differently so you can't know how much you will get until you apply to a school and the school works up a financial plan for you.

The amount you will get from FAFSA can not be determined just by how much you made. It depends on how much the school costs and how much you need. Plus you are always capable of getting a loan.

generally if you submit your FAFSA soon enough, the average Pell Grant is 4050, which will span over two semesters, therefore, you will have 2025 per semester.
