<p>For questions 33-37 regarding the applicants adjusted gross income on the IRS form and income tax paid, I left the fields blank.</p>
<p>I answered "will not file" on for question 32 and on the FAFSA.ed.gov website, it says that I will be taken to question 38 and I am to answer questions that apply.</p>
<pre><code>* If you will not file a tax return:Answer Will Not File to question 32 (Have you completed a tax return?).
* You will then be taken to question 38 (Income earned from work).
* Enter any income that you earned from a job that is listed as taxed on a W2 form.
* Answer only those income questions that apply to you from that point on.

<p>The University of California financial guide says to answer zero for any blanks on the 32-47 questions.</p>
<p>Since I am taken to question 38 thereby skipping the 33-37 questions I didnt answer zero.</p>
<p>Do I correct the FAFSA again (three times already) filling out a blank for the questions? How would I answer the questions regarding my income tax return?</p>
<p>Sorry for the large posts, but is it acceptable to place 2006 income info for 2007 estimates?
My 2007 estimates are 22000 higher than my 2006 adjusted gross income</p>
<p>I don't know about your first question, but regarding your second: even if you estimate with 2006 data on FAFSA, your schools will get your 2007 tax data (I believe you are always required to send tax forms, though I may be wrong) and correct your aid package accordingly. But fix the FAFSA according to 2007 after you have done taxes for 2007! My mom estimated her 2007 income to be 20K higher than 2006 on FAFSA, but it ended up being about the same as 2006 - meaning our original EFC was assuming we had 20K more than we actually did! That freaked us out, but it's somewhat better now that we've fixed things.</p>
<p>If FAFSA had you skip questions because you answered "will not file", that's fine. UC won't have a problem with it. I assume that you're the student, and you didn't make enough income to require filing taxes.</p>
<p>Now, you say that your '07 income estimates are 22K higher than your '06. I assume this is your parent's income, right? Since you're not filing taxes?</p>
<p>You estimate until the taxes are done, then do a correction online with the actual income and tax numbers. You can use '06 numbers, but will have to increase them dramatically when you insert the actual '07 numbers. So your aid package will decrease significantly. Better, IMO, to estimate '07 income conservatively (maybe just 15K or so higher than '06) when you initially submit.</p>
