Income Information, Based on Your Dependency Status, is Required to Complete the FAFSA
Your answers to FAFSA questions will determine whether you’re considered a dependent or independent student. Your dependency status determines whose income information must be reported on the FAFSA form:
- If you’re a dependent student, you’ll report your and your parental information.
- If you’re an independent student, you’ll report your information. Married students are also required to share their spouse’s information.
