When I spoke to the rep at the FAFSA call center and I explained the situation, she said I was correct and that untaxed SSD benefits are not included on the FAFSA. Does it matter if they may be taxable if I exceed a threshold when I have never exceeded the threshold and therefore, have never paid tax on them?
How do I determine what may be taxable SSD benefits when I have never exceeded the standard deduction or had any other income while receiving SSD benefits?
