Financial Assistance Program question

Hi all,

Non-trad applicant here. 28 years old just graduating with my Master's. Father passed two years ago, mother still alive and remarried. Obviously I receive no financial assistance from them, but it seems as though I still need to include their information on my FAP application. Is this right? Biggest question is if I need to include my step-father's income with my mother's? I do not qualify with their income, yet I no money this last year as I was a graduate student.

Just not sure of the process. Any information would be helpful! Cheers!

What about stepfather's info?

Don't bother.

In the unlikely case that they ask about your stepfather (which they won't even know about unless you tell them), your situation easily justifies the need for FAP.

Don't be dumb and listen to this person. You have to submit their taxes as part of the application for proof. Just put down both of them exactly as it is shown on their taxes.
