<p>I have a similar question: My husband and I are separated (not legally yet); he lives and works in a different state. Our two children live with me… so I assume that I will file the FAFSA and CSS profile and H will complete the CSS noncustodial parent form. He rents and I live in a house (which is in both our names, but I pay the mortgage). For the purpose of reporting assets (the value of the home) do I split the amount in half (on CSS on FAFSA or both). Also, my D gives me an (informally) agreed amount of funds every month …should I report this as child support or as something else?</p>
