Hi thumper1, thanks for starting a great thread.
You mentioned:
"8. The FAFSA is available online for filing on January 1 of the year your child is applying for finaid (e.g. Jan 1, 2008 for the 2008-09 school year). Plan to file very close to Jan 1 using accurate estimates using a "will file" status, meaning you will be filing your taxes for the 2007 tax year. Then complete your taxes ASAP after Jan 31, and you can amend the FAFSA online and resubmit indicating that you have filed."
Now, I understand many banks / mutual fund companies send out 1099 later Feb/Mar. I would think it may not be possible to file the taxes before that unless some one wants to file amendment returns later. Any suggestion on that?
