On the FAFSA form, the income of the custodial parent is primarily considered, which is typically the parent with whom the student lives most of the time. If the parents are divorced, the non-custodial parent's income is generally not required, unless the college specifically requests it. The custodial parent's income, along with any child support or alimony received, will be used to determine the student's Expected Family Contribution (EFC). It's important for students to accurately report their living situation to ensure proper financial aid assessment.

Do you report both parents' income on the FAFSA if your parents were never married?

Yes, if your parents were never married but are both living together, you should report both parents' income on the FAFSA. If they are separated or divorced and do not live together, you only need to report the income of the parent you lived with the most in the past 12 months. If that parent has remarried, you must also include your stepparent's income.

If you parents get divorced and your mom is unable to work what exactly will your father pay?

It all depends, if you are with your mom most of the time, he will pay a certain percentage of his salary according to the judge. If you are with him more often, nothing, your mom has to pay nothing either because she doesn't make an income (child support doesn't count as an income). So, it just depends on the judge, your dad's salary, and who you are with most of the time.

A sole income mom what is the meaning?

It means a mother who is providing for her family based on one income, usually hers. To understand the concept fully, think of the opposite: a two-income family. In a two-income family, the money earned by both the mother and father go to providing food, clothing, and shelter for the family. Both the mother and father have jobs. A sole income mom is someone who is never married, divorced or widowed. Yet, in these days of rampant unemployment, the father may still be in the home, but is not working. The sole income mom is the only one working in the family, and the family lives off of her paycheck.
