I have legal guardianship of my grandson. It was awarded in TX. We live in NC now. He is a senior in high school and just turned 18. I didn’t realize I needed to transfer the guardianship to the new state. Is he independent? If he is dependent, who’s information does he use (he is not in touch with his parents.) Do I have him fill out the FAFSA as independent and then provide the school with the information that it was never transferred? I don’t know if I can transfer it now that he is 18. Thank you.
