If the $100k in the bank added only $5600 to EFC, I wonder how the EFC then got to over 80K? The home we had was sold for a huge loss after the FAFSA/CSS was completed. My dad’s partnership job only reduced a little due to the corona.
My dad’s AGI for 2018 was $197K but he has a lot of expenses that chips away at this income. I want to talk to the Fin Aid officer but I wonder what talking points to use?
