Noncustodial Profile/CSS Profile

<p>I am currently filling out the CSS Profile. My parents divorced in 2007 and in 2010 my father passed away. Because of this I cannot fill out the noncustodial profile. Here is a section from the search help results on college board when i searched deceases parent.</p>

<p>[Q: My noncustodial parent is deceased and the college wants his information on the Noncustodial PROFILE. What can I do?</p>

<p>A: If you haven't submitted the PROFILE yet, make sure Registration Question 11 says "widowed." </p>

<p>If you have already been notified of the Noncustodial PROFILE requirement, the College Board cannot waive the requirement, as it is set by your colleges and programs. Advise your colleges and programs of the death of your parent. Follow the guidance you receive from the financial aid administrators at each college or program as to how to fulfill their requirements.]</p>

<p>Should i set my parents marital status as "widowed" even though my father died after they divorced.Or should I go through the hassle of requesting Noncustodial Profile waivers for my colleges. Please help me!</p>

<p>I think you have to select “widowed” since there isn’t a choice to indicate the exact situation.</p>
