FAFSA inforamtion please help! IMPORTANT?

Question

i am currently filling out my FAFSA on the web and it says

What was your (and your spouse's) adjusted gross income for 2007?

I would leave it blank because i am not married and dont have a spouse.

do i do this or not??

Answer 1

Just fill out your information.

Answer 2

since u r not married put N/A and the other one the same thing

Answer 3

All of these answers are wrong.  You may not be married and have a spouse, but if you worked in 2007 and filed a tax return - you have an AGI (Adjusted Gross Income).  

The instructions for the FAFSA tell you that you can find your AGI by looking on your tax return.  

    *  Line 4 if you filed a Form 1040EZ

    * Line 21 if you filed a Form 1040A

    * Line 37 if you filed a Form 1040

If you were not required, and did not complete a tax return, then you do not have an AGI.  You can leave it blank or put a zero down.

Answer 4

Do not leave it blank!  It's asking for YOUR income, and your spouse's income IF you have one.

If you didn't have any income, then put $0.

Answer 5

AGI for you and your spouse is like this Your gross + spouse.  You have to put yours.  If you make a mistake and you get verified the (faa) financial aid administrator will correct the error with the information you send.

YOU ARE NOT AUTOMATICALLY DISQUALIFED IF YOU MADE A MISTAKE.  PEOPLE GET DISQUALIFED FOR INTENTIONALLY LYING ON THEIR FASFA TO GET FINANCIAL AID.

IF YOU DONT GET VERIFIED BUT YOU SPOT AN ERROR ON YOUR FAFSA YOU ARE CONTRACTUALLY OBLIGATED TO NOTIFY YOUR FAA ABOUT THE ERROR.  IF YOU DO NOT YOU CAN BE DISQUALIFED FOR THE FOLLOWING YEAR
