<p>So I tried applying for FAFSA this year for the first time. i cannot claim my self independent yet so I used my parents income tax information. Both my parents are illegal immigrants but still file their taxes. (From my understanding its a fake social... but I do not know the details behind it.) I went to check my fafsa today and it said that my application was not approved because of the incorrect socials... Is there anyway around this? If I do not put my parents socials... what will happen? Can I put 0's for their socials but still input their tax information? I obviously am very confused and extremely worried. Any suggestions? I NEED HELP! :(</p>
<p>something similar happened to me
my parents are not US citizens, but they live in Mexico
So for their social security I put all zeros and I had to mail a ´´signature page´´ because they could not sign electronically…
for taxes I put WILL NOT FILE
I think you should have done the same
and Im not sure if it counts as if they filed taxes since it was not with a real SSN…im not sure :s</p>
