Show Answer Im going to get married prior to the fall semester. How do I answer the question that asks if I am married?
You cannot project your marital status. You must report your marital status as of the date that the FAFSA is filed. If you file the FAFSA as single, then marry, you cannot update the FAFSA by changing the response to married. A number of factors must be considered when making the determination of whether to postpone filing until you are married. For guidance, contact the Financial Aid Office.
