Filling out FAFSA without parents' information?

<p>Since you’re the one signing the form, you’d be guilty of criminal fraud . . . and you could well be facing more than a “fine.” This is not a traffic ticket, it’s a felony!</p>

<p>The good news is that since it’s your parents who are encouraging you to do this, and since they’re the ones who came up with the plan, they could be charged with conspiracy to commit fraud . . . so at least you wouldn’t be alone.</p>

<p>Translation: bad idea . . . very bad idea!!!</p>
