<p>Ok, so I'm in the midst of applying for financial aid, and I need a few worries sorted out.</p>
<p>The universities ask for 2008 tax returns by around March. In Canada, we only file tax returns in April. What should I do?
Should I also estimate 2008 values?</p>
<p>Should I convert amounts to US dollars? Princeton explicitly states that it wants this, but what about for other universities? Which exchange rates should I use?</p>
<p>Thanks in advance.</p>
<p>You should estimate now and correct the numbers when you get them I would convert the amounts to USD. I am not sure if they have a conversion table they like you to use, it is tough with the volatility of the past few years to know what to use.</p>
<p>what do you mean about "correct the numbers"? do we have to submit an update later on?
I guess I would use the most recent exchange rate then.</p>
<p>and is it just me, or is there a LOT of information to fill out on the CSS? O.o</p>
