thanks for the responses. My mom files her taxes separately and claims me on her records. My only remaining question is that unfortunately, there is one college to which I said I lived with my two parents (in the common app, I put them under the “not married” option). I guess that was just pure stupidity from me, since he’s not my real father (or my legal stepfather), but the common app indicated towards putting down who you lived with. Now, since I’ll be filing the fafsa/css with my mother’s info only, will i be expecting a call from that college to explain that discrepancy in information?
