Direct Loan Master Promissory Note Question

<p>It says...
"List two persons with different U.S. addresses who do not live with you and who have known you for at least three years."</p>

<p>but it also says
"The first reference should be a parent or legal guardian."</p>

<p>But my parent lives with me? I am so confused. It kind of contradicts with the first statement. Am I supposed to use a parent for the first reference even though they live with me?</p>

<p>^My daughter’s MPN: “7. References: List two persons with different U.S. addresses who have known you for at least three years. The first reference should be a parent or legal guardian.”</p>

<p>I think it means the two references must have different addresses from each other, not different from you.</p>

<p>The first reference is your parent. The second reference can be another relative or friend, but can’t have the same address as your parent.</p>

<p>That stumped me too! I was completing with son yesterday and read it the same way - list your parent as a reference - but list references with a different address from you. But we entered father’s info - with same home address as student - and it worked. That direction could be clearer.</p>
