stay-at-home moms going back to work... and financial aid

<p>I just did ran it on the Finaid calculator with both our incomes and with just my husband’s, and it went well down below Pell-eligible with just my husbands. When I added in my $6300 income it went up by 800 and out of Pell-range.</p>

<p>Everything else was identical.</p>

<p>I have heard here on CC before that a second income (a part-time low income) would not be penalized on the FAFSA, but I just have not found that to be true. It certainly is not true for us.</p>
