No. It may, however, affect the "earning capacity" you will be assessed -- meaning, that amount that you *could* earn if you went out and got a job right now. Your earning capacity would be at least minimum wage, and certainly higher if you've worked jobs with higher pay in the past.

In short, you're going to have to pay something. Best of luck to you.
