Good afternoon, a friend has asked me to post this. (We have yet to fill out our own FAFSA or Profile…).

The student in question is presently a junior.

Her parents are divorced, and she lives with Mom. In total in this household are Mom, Mom’s significant other, and student’s younger sibling.

Mom has not remarried, and she and SO are not on the same tax returns.

How is this handled for FAFSA purposes? SO has a very high income. Does he magically not appear?

Thanks for repies!
