Military disability pay is considered a form of income and may affect the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) results. While it is not taxed and is not counted as earned income, it can still increase the overall income reported on the FAFSA, potentially impacting the Expected Family Contribution (EFC). This could lead to a reduction in federal aid eligibility. It's essential for military families to accurately report all sources of income when completing the FAFSA.
