2008 taxes won't be done - what to do about FAFSA?

<p>Because we own several businesses, our accountant is telling us our 2008 tax returns will not be done until March. Is there anything I can do about this with FAFSA? I understand it needs to done in January.</p>

<p>you can fill it out based on last year's return , as an estimate. If your school wants an update later , it can be done</p>

<p>^ That's what I've heard too, and what we are doing (using the 2007 1040 forms).</p>

<p>ahh good. So my parents can just do estimates and submit it like that, the Uni will take it? Since my dad wont be able to do tax returns by feb 1</p>

<p>From everything I heard everywhere---that's what your parents should do. That's what we are doing for our son. And, from what I've heard, it's good to do it asap.</p>

<p>That's what I have done every year</p>
