Well I live alone and receive absolutely no money from my parents once so ever....on the FAFSA form there is a PARENT INFORMATION SECTION .....it states
“Parent” refers to a biological or adoptive parent. Grandparents, foster parents, legal guardians, older siblings, and uncles or aunts are not considered parents on this form unless they have legally adopted you. In case of divorce or separation, give information about the parent you lived with most in the last 12 months. If you did not live with one parent more than the other, give information about the parent who provided you the most financial support during the last 12 months or during the most recent year you received support. If your divorced or widowed parent has remarried, also provide information about your stepparent
.Do I only need information for one of them?
.What if I am unable to get information from them?
.Why does it matter how much money they make if they will not help me at all ?
IF YOU DO NOT HAVE YOUR PARENTS INFORMATION IT SAYS THIS ON FAFSA SITE
If you believe you have a special circumstance and are unable to provide parental information, you should complete information about you and your finances and skip any questions about your parents. You should sign your FAFSA with your PIN and leave your parent's PIN blank. It is important to note:
We will allow you to submit your FAFSA without parental information, however your FAFSA will not be considered complete.
......So if your parents can't help you with information are you screwed ?
