Lots of confusions ( Cry for help!)

<p>Hey people! </p>

<p>I am applying to US colleges for the fall of 2015, and I have already submitted my ED I application via common app. And now, I have to submit my financial documents before December 1st. There are a few questions to which I don't have confident answers. If any of you has any relevant knowledge or insight, please do share, and help me ( and possibly many others with same confusions).</p>

<p>Here goes:</p>

<p>1) Have the student's parent(s) completed an income tax return for the 2014 tax year? [CSS]
Answer options: Yes, completed; No, not required to; Not yet, but will.
My case: My parents have some of the income tax returns, but not all. What should be my answer? And, where in hell ( or Kathmandu) can I officially translate these Nepali tax return statements? </p>

<p>2) Does your government currently impose restrictions on exchange and release of funds for study in the US?
Answer options: No; Yes ( If yes, describe the restrictions) I don't know.</p>

<p>3) What is the total amount of money you expect to have when you arrive at this institution? [ I need to know if there is a certain minimum and maximum amount we can have] [ How much do other people usually take? ]</p>

<p>1) You don’t have to submit the forms themselves. You just need the information they ask for. I’d still keep a scanned copy, just in case.</p>

<p>2) No, the govt. does not.</p>

<p>3) There isn’t a minimum or a maximum, depends on your expenses. If you expect to have to spend a lot (for housing, if not provided, for food, if not covered by FA, etc), you must have enough to cover that. Otherwise, 1.5k-2k is more than enough.</p>
