<p>My wife has her own p/t business. Her gross income is one figure and the amount added to our adjusted gross income is lower (less business expenses, home office deduction,etc). On the FAFSA we are supposed to list her income. Which should I use? "Paying for College Without Going Broke" suggests we should use the higher amount as these figures are really used by FAFSA to figure out expenses (?). THoughts? Thanking you in advance for your input.</p>
<p>I don't like having to estimate all this with the prospect of having to redo it all once I have finished my 2010 taxes.</p>
