How can we fill out the CSS PROFILE by early February when we don even file our income tax return until April 15?
The tax return doesn’t have to be filed before the CSS PROFILE form or the FAFSA are completed. If estimated figures are used, then you should indicate this on the forms. You should realize that any offer of financial aid based on estimated income figures is considered tentative until we receive a copy of your tax returns, at which point we’ll make any necessary adjustments based on the actual numbers.
