@BluePinkerton Btw, not sure if anyone knew, but if your step dad and your mom AREN’T married, then you don’t have to put him on your financial aid. I know step dad means they are married but sometimes people give mother’s significant other that title despite not being married. My step dad makes around $100k a year and my mom doesn’t work, but legally, financial aid told me that unless they were married, that I did not have to put his income. So my EFC was 0, and I was able to afford college because I was offered many grants/scholarships. I was in the same situation that my step dad didn’t want to pay anything.
