Mwfan1921:
I think I saw in one of your threads that you are applying for fin aid, correct? Since all of the apps are completed, have you filed FAFSA and sent to all the schools? FAFSA will include your financial info, and your son’s step dad (I think you said you were remarried?) and your son’s. Sending FAFSA to 20+ schools will take some time because you can only do 10 at once…you have to wait until those schools process it before you remove that school and send to each of the school numbers 11-20+.
For many of the privates you will have to also file the CSS Profile. This will include your ex’s financial info as well (and a step mom if there is one).
Due dates for all of the financial forms will start happening quickly, and then there will likely be follow up questions from some portion of the schools. Make sure you and your son are checking his portals often to make sure things are not falling thru the cracks.
Thank you for suggesting this. Yes. This is actually all done as well. We submitted all income docs via IDOCS the first weekend in October. FAFSA’s have been sent to all schools and NCP form Submitted with Dad’s tax info as well. He is not remarried so that was a bit easier.
