I'm doing my FINANCIAL AID and I need help PLEASE ?

Question

I'm trying to get my income taxes done asap because I need the money asap because I'm going to school in the summer which starts in May. My mom is far away from me and don't understand english very well and I can't go to get her income tax forms so I talked to her over the phone for the information while doing my financial aid online. I'll be visiting her in a week. Is it alright if I put what she says in the spaces then correct it in a week after I sent it in ?

In addition, I did my income taxes with turbo tax. Is there a way I can print out my forms so I can get the info I need for my financial aid ?

Thank you very much.

Answer 1

Are you a dependent of your mom?  Did she claim you on her taxes and does she support you?  

If you filled out a FAFSA application, you can skip the parental information and just insert your own.  And yes, Turbo tax will have your info on file just log in with your user name and password and you will be able to pull up copies.  

If you have to insert parental info, do so, and yes you can adjust it later...just means it will take a bit longer to find out what the school will award you.
