<p>The question is WHY? If it is because they have had no income and therefore no reason to file that is a very different story than if they HAD income and didn't file. I guess what I'm saying is that if this person's parents DO file 2006 taxes so that their child can complete the FAFSA for the 2007 college year, it would likely trigger a tax audit situation over previous years IF they should have been filing and haven't. I think this situation could likely need the assistance of someone more knowledgable than many of us on this board. NOW...if the parents have no income and do not need to file taxes, the big question would be...how in the world are they paying their bills??</p>
