<p>OK i’ve got a two questions:

  1. If you work, but you didn’t start until last summer, do you have to fill in the tax info for 2005?
  2. How accurate does the data have to be? We send in the FAFSA later on, is this one just to give an estimate? Like, will a difference between $500 in my bank account, or say an actual value of $530 matter?</p>

<p>They know it’s only an estimate so I wouldn’t worry too much. Just give your best guess for now of everything. They will be requesting tax forms in Feb to confirm.</p>

<p>wut happens if they dont receive the CSS profile today until say… hypothetically speaking… a week from today?</p>

4

<p>That I don’t know - I would assume financial aid offers on SCEA are not firm since they need to confirm. Check with the Financial Aid office.</p>
