Got questions?

We have answers to the most popular questions from our customers. If you can't find an answer to your question, please contact us.

What determines dependent status?

Make sure your dependent meets the IRS requirements. Generally, the IRS requires that the child is under the age of 19 (or under 24 if a full-time student), lives with you for more than half the year, and does not provide more than half of their own financial support.

What is your dependency status?

This classification, crucial for FAFSA assessment, determines your eligibility for financial aid. Dependent students must include their parental demographic and financial information on their FAFSA, while independent students must provide their own financial information.

How do I know if I am dependent or independent?

A dependent student is assumed to be financially supported by their parents, is usually under the age of 24, unmarried, without dependents, and not a veteran or currently serving in the U.S. military. Dependent students must include their parents financial details when completing the FAFSA.

Can I change my dependency status?

Additionally, if your personal circumstances change and impact your dependency status after you submit your FAFSA form, contact your schools financial aid office to ask if they have a policy that allows you to update your answers to the personal circumstance questions.
