NCP Doesn't Pay Court-Ordered Child Support - Zero Contract

[thumper1]

I learned a bit more about the NCPs situation last night after talking to his brother. His brother, who is a responsible, reliable individual, indicated that he is sure the NCP (his brother) would NOT complete the FAFSA

I’m guessing this is a typo. Non-custodial parents do NOT ever complete the FAFSA, and their income and assets are not ON the student FAFSA.

Non-custodial parents are required to submit the NCP Profile form at some colleges.

He has lots of issues with back taxes, court cases, etc., although his “above the table” income is low. The brother also reminded me that the NCP has assets of at least $350,000 from the 1/3 of the house he inherited with his parents. The brother thought maybe the fact that it was in a trust might make a difference…?? There are also numerous court cases, law suits, etc. swirling around him

None of these are the basis for a non-custodial parent waiver, in my opinion. BUT apply for NCP Profile waivers at the colleges that require them…and see what happens. You might get granted these waivers. Check with the schools for what they require to get this waiver…then request.

But also have some options that do not require the NCP forms on your kid’s application list, as well as places where large merit is also possible as merit won’t be dependent on filing financial aid forms (unless specific awards have a need component).
