If I live with an aunt, uncle or grandparent, should that relatives income be reported instead of parental information?
The only time you would report their income is if the relative is your adoptive parent. Dependent students can be considered dependent only on their parent(s) and may report parental inform only on FAFSA. You must report any cash support given by relatives, but not in-kind support (such as food and housing) from relatives.
