No, for FINANCIAL AID your mom is head of the household. That’s how it works. It doesn’t matter if your grandmother makes the money - what matters is that you are a dependent student so your parent is the “head” and you & any siblings are in the HH size - even if your mother doesn’t make any money on her own.
