Argh…I did t know the table scrolled up!! Yep…goes up,to 60 something. Sorry!!
But also, the point about the low end of the range is still that it doesn’t matter if it’s common or not. The tables need to capture any possible situation.
Here’s one that doesn’t stretch the imagination all that far: A 41 year old widower, with a 16 year old son, remarries a 26 year old woman. Prudently, the step-mother adopts the minor in case something happens to the father. It does. He dies, and as the student fills out his FAFSA for college the next year, his oldest parent is 27. Thank God the FAFSA tables account for that scenario!
My mid 40s uncle just remarried and his bride is 27. His children are aged 8 though 15.
(There will absolutely NOT be any adoption in this case but I agree it’s not that unusual).
Do you mind sharing the spreadsheet?
