Financial Aid and Income Tax

Paying for College

<p>Hello,
I had planned to sign up for Fin. Aid at January to maximaxe my chance of getting more aid. However, my accountant that does the income tax is slow and told me that he will get it done by februrary at the earliest. Is there any way i can fill out the form without my income tax for this year?</p>

<p>Thank You</p>

<p>Yes, you can use estimated amounts and then correct it with the actual amounts. Refer to the FAFSA or Profile instructions for more information.</p>

<p>will this delay my application from getting reviewed or do they review the applications with the estimations?</p>

<p>Thank You</p>

<p>It seems like the first filing merely saves your place in line and they are able to do the actual review later.</p>

<p>Do not delay. File based upon the best estimates you can gather.</p>
