Putting a child as a beneficiary

Paying for College

<p>My mother has $20,000 worth of bonds listed in her name, but with me as the beneficiary. Are these “taxed” by FAFSA as parent assets or student assets?</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>right now they are part of the parents assets.</p>

<p>They are not your assets unless you have inherited them.</p>
