You put the negative number. I couldn’t get it to accept and save, so I called the FAFSA help line (the man who answered my call was VERY nice). He instructed me to enter it with a “-” (he said not to use “( )” or “< >”) and try to save three or four times… then he said to enter the number followed by a “-” and try to save three or four times… then go back to entering it with a leading negative sign three or four times… and it finally worked.
