<p>If he has no 1099’s, paystubs, W2’s or any other proof of income then just the tax form will suffice. If you are still concerned just call the financial aid office at one of the colleges and they will let you know if that is enough.</p>
<p>I have to work on Finalist announcement day. Oh well, it’s only a few hours. I’m glad I don’t have to work on Match day! </p>
<p>I remember reading that the Match rate for Yale is about 1.7%. Ouch.</p>
<p>I’m so angry that I can’t apply to any schools until I found out whether I’m a finalist or not…I’m missing all these free applications to my safety schools…is anyone else in the same boat?</p>
<p>Well, xctf, how many of those applications have due dates before October 23rd? I’ve gotten a number of priority applications, but I haven’t seen any of them with a due date before November 1st.</p>
<p>^ Right. Who misses out on anything by 23 October 2009?</p>
<p><warning: rant=“”>
I’m seriously like losing friends over this </warning:></p>
<p>They’ve all been asking me Julia where the heck have you been for the past few weeks? Do you ever come out of your house/the guidance office? My boyfriend’s like about to break up with me cause I’ve been super-illusive girlfriend lately T_T </p>
<p>If they only knew how much work this actually is…i ranked 7 schools.</p>
<p><strong>sighh</strong> QB taking over life… :'(</p>
<p>For a 45% shot at finalist, 2% shot at match, and 35% shot at RD.
Awesome.</p>
<p><em>end rant</em></p>
<p>awwwww Ju_liaa, i feel your pain! im the only one i know who’s done qb, and so i’ve been catching heck for it from friends and everyone else=P </p>
<p>i think youre a bit worse off than me with 7 schools…hopefully most of them don’t require crazy supplements???</p>
<p>and don’t quote those statistics at me! there’s a fine line between being realistic and digging yourself into a pit of despair! try to be positive, if you can hold out till friday some of the stress will be relieved either way=)</p>
<p>Ju_liaa, you should give your boyfriend and friends IOU cards. That simple. Say that you’ll pay them back in hugs and interest!</p>
<p>@ obstinate: BRILLIANT! =D</p>
<p>Haha you guys are great! :)</p>
<p>Cellochick: You’re right i really only have to make it though this upcoming week, though we all know it’s going to be the longest week everrrr XD</p>
<p>Obstinate: Absolute genius. I am soo doing that tomorrow…</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Hate to tell you this, but the last week of November will be 10X more stressful than this week! :(</p>
<p>@MOM: Oh i know, i mean to say that with an ominous “for now”…lol</p>
<p>how long is the tax form? (My mom is very disorganized, I’m doing everything, unofrtunately,I’m not THAT familiar with taxes). The form she gave me is a W2 1040A and is 2 sheets long. the last page ends iwth “Paid Preparer’s Use only” and before it, it asks for signatures</p>
<p>@GA2012MOM, @nameofthegame</p>
<p>Thanks a lot!</p>
<p>similar to chiyoske’s question - my dad does roofing, construction, moving, etc with his personal van. Self-employed, right? What do I do about the farm/business supp? I’m also an international, which seems to make everything more complicated.</p>
<p>for the common app for parent info, what do I do if I don’t know what my noncustodial parent does?</p>
<p>Guys if you’re a permanent resident but haven’t get gained citizenship status, are you still considered international?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Both permanent residents and citizens are not international students for most college-related purposes, especially financial aid.</p>
<p>So do you just make copies of your W2 forms and stuff??</p>
<p>I think that colleges do not expect students to be tax experts. As long as you send in what you have and not try to hide any information then I would not be worried. The colleges will contact you to verify or add any information that is missing. When I called the FA office of two different colleges about needing to fill out the farm/business supplement, they said they didn’t think it was necessary, but I sent it anyway just to be safe. I heard the FAFSA is much easier to fill out and there will be direct online access to your most recent taxes so you don’t have to search for forms. I hope that is true.</p>
