Tax Returns

Paying for College
1

<p>So the deadline's on the 1st of February and my mother says that her tax returns arent ready yet until a couple more months. I understand that we should estimate for now, but when we finally get our hands on the tax returns is there any way that I can make changes after I submitted the CSS Profile and FAFSA in to meet the deadline? </p>

<p>Sorry if I don't make any sense... I don't understand this tax stuff at all!</p>

<p>Oh! This is totally irrelevant, but I have a middle name in my full name and I have NEVER used it. I submitted my college applications without hinting that I have one.. so should I be consistent and not fill in my middle name for the fafsa and css profile or fill it in?</p>

<p>Yes you can, and in fact have to, make corrections after you submit. FAFSA you can change online. CSS you have to mail changes in.</p>

<p>I would put your full name, especially for FAFSA. It is important that all your information and social security number match up so you don’t get any error problems.</p>

<p>FAFSA doesn’t even ask for a middle name though… its’ just FIRST NAME and LAST NAME.</p>

<p>Oh. Then don’t put the middle name.</p>

<p>I’ve only helped do 5 so far and didn’t pick up on that :rolleyes:</p>
