You indicated on the FAFSA that you are or were in a legal guardianship. Please send us a copy of the court's decision indicating you had a legal guardian appointed. If you do not currently have a copy, please contact the court in your state of legal residence at the time the court's decision was issued.
If you believe you answered this question in error log onto your FAFSA at www.fafsa.gov, click on "make correction", update question #51 to "No" and follow the instructions on the screen to add parent information onto your FAFSA. Your parent will need a Federal Student Aid ID (FSA ID) to sign your FAFSA electronically. If they do not have a FSA ID they can apply or request a duplicate at www.fsaid.ed.gov. After you have made this correction the Department of Education will send us the corrected FAFSA and we will re-review your Financial Aid status.
