Thank you for weighing in mom2collegekids.
The grad student in question is currently in between undergrad and grad school. He completed his undergrad in June '14 and doesn’t plan to attend grad school until Aug/Sept of '16.
I’m trying to figure out what the determining factors will be as to whether our three young adults (whom we’re supporting more than 50% of their support for in food, lodging, clothing, medical, dental, and other necessities) to be considered dependents as far as dependents are referred to for Cal Grant.
Do they need to pass the IRS test in order to be consider all dependents or another test determined by FAFSA, in order to be considered dependents?
This would be in order to see what our income ceiling would need to be at for our 19 yo to qualify next year for a Cal Grant renewal.
