I have questions about Financial Aid

Published

In the requirements it mentions: Your 2009 W-2 Forms and other records of money earned

I am 27 years of age. I have opened 2 businesses trying to make money but I ended up losing money with bad investments by opening these businesses. SO I really don't have any income tax returns, w2forms, or proof of money earned.

Will this be a problem for me? After the bad investments I have tried looking for for over a year and I cant find one.

I hope I can still get a loan :(

Talk with the financial aid office at your school. They can help you figure out what to do and how to go about filling out the forms.

Are you saying you didn't file any taxes for a few years? I could see that being a problem since you wouldn't be able to complete FAFSA.

If you filed taxes but lost the paperwork, you just need to request copies of your tax returns from the IRS. http://www.irs.gov/taxtopics/tc159.html

You can complete a the fafsa, if you did not file taxes AND were not required to file.
