<p>I’m an idiot. I’ve done my FAFSA, my CSS and the corrections that were needed and mailed to all of my schools. I’ve heard from 5? of my schools, and it’s almost April 1st, yet I haven’t even mailed in my tax return forms. Am I pretty much helpless or should I still mail them in? By the way, my mom says her tax forms are 10, 20 pages long… is that normal?</p>
<p>Not unusual at all. Sit down with your mom, and let her show you the purpose of each form.</p>
<p>If your problem is that the tax forms have not been submitted to the IRS, that is easy to fix. At [Internal</a> Revenue Service](<a href=“http://www.IRS.gov%5DInternal”>http://www.IRS.gov) follow the links for e-filing. The IRS’s own free fillable forms are free for everyone, but your mom might prefer a paid option like TurboTax if her stuff is messy.</p>
<p>If your problem is that you haven’t sent the requested copies to your school(s), make the copies today and send them by over night express mail.</p>
