Quick question as its been awhile since I've done these. When filling out the FAFSA, there is the checkpoint where it asks if we want to fill out our parental information since we are now considered "independent", however certain schools I am sending it to require our parental info on FAFSA while others do not need this information.
My question is, if we put our parents information in to be compliant with the schools that require it, do the others truly turn a blind eye to it/not count it when considering their own grants/aid? I wonder because I am leaning towards the school that doesn't require it, and since I am older and truly am an independent, would prefer to only have my income considered for the financial aid process. Thanks for all help!
