Our twenty-one year old daughter is no longer claimed as a dependent on our tax return, she files her own return, and supports herself. Why is our income considered when it comes to her receiving financial aid?
 
no matter her age, the parents are always considered as a 'back-up' i don't agree with it, but its the way it works... a way of getting around it is emancipation.
