<p>Okay, yes exactly. My mother will be willing to prove that she is living off of borrowed money, savings, etc. I talked to a few schools and they said waivers are definitely possible to get even though my father still pays child support. The situation is very sticky because he pays child support so that the state does not punish him, etc. However, he does not pay for my medical bills which he is obligated to do through the divorce agreement. I am going to attempt to get the waivers I need because when I did contact my father he explicitly said he would never contribute nor submit his financial information. In addition my social worker was going to send laters to the schools explaining the situation with my father, however he passed this year. Thanks for the advice. I am first generation so my mother does not have any insight on this process. </p>
