<p>hi i applied as ED
I have questions on Finacial aid. Please correct me if iam wrong</p>
<p>First for CSS Profile
it asks for 2006 tax reports which my parents do not yet have.
Do I provide estimates (based on best guess such as the website's Calculator) ?
since it was the estimate, shoud i send the 2006 tax reform after notifacation of acceptance? by when?</p>
<p>Second question for Federal Income Tax Returns and Other Required Documents. (IDOC)
As ED applicant, when should i fill this out and send it by?
Should i send it after the notification of acceptance in December?
Do i just need to send it to IDOC?(it says on the website that there is an exception to the ED applicants so they need to send it to the Office by 11/15. )</p>
<p>Third question.
do i send the Tax reports twice for CSS profile and IDOC? Or is it that i just need to send the Tax Returns to IDOC only?</p>
<ol>
<li><p>Estimate from their 2005 taxes; estimate what they can pay from the calculator, go 20% under the calculated EFC to be safe and not over estimate. Value of home is they own one can been done from an Internet site.</p></li>
<li><p>This college or program participates in the College Board's Institutional Documentation Service (IDOC). In early February the student will be notified of where and how to submit his or her tax forms and other documentation. Please do not mail tax forms directly to this college or program. [probably the 2006 tax forms only]</p></li>
<li><p>f parents have not already done so, they must send the school or program a signed copy of their 2005 U.S. income tax return (Form 1040, 1040A, or 1040EZ). Clearly print the student's name and Social Security Number on all pages of the copy. [So, send 2005 taxes, include yours too if you filed in 2005]</p></li>
<li><p>Submit the CSS form online one week before it is due.</p></li>
<li><p>Call the financial aid office of you ED school to make sure the above is correct.</p></li>
