<p>Hi guys, my dad had been recently informed that he will be losing his job in a year. I was wondering what I should put for my dad's income when applying for colleges this fall because he will still have his job, but will not in a half a year. Thanks guys</p>
<p>Is your father looking for a new job yet? You’ll have to enter whatever info. is on his tax return. If he’s out of work for any length of time, it will have an effect on your 2nd year of college, but if he works this entire year, I don’t think his job loss will affect your 1st year. You can certainly inform whatever colleges accept you that your dad will be losing his job, but if he has a year’s notice most are likely going to expect him to have something lined up by the time you start school. Good luck.</p>
