Hi yes. I am in this same situation almost. I am 19 years old and I have kicked out of my parents home and they want nothing to do with me. I have been living with a friend and his family ever since I was removed from my home until I go off to a bigger school next fall and I am currently going to a community college. I filed myself for the FAFSA and put myself as homeless but for some reason its still wanting my parents info which I cannot retrieve. And I have recently heard that FAFSA can still add my parents income and so forth even if I claim myself as homeless. So the only thing I know to do is to emancipate myself. What should I do??

Why would you risk government loan fraud to state something that is not the truth, stating you are homeless when you obviously are not because you state in this text that you have been living with a friend and his family????? Did you let your friends family claim you on their tax return this year as a dependent?

Again, was not sure this went through.... Why would you risk falsifying information on a government loan stating you are homeless, when you obviously are not???? You stated you are living with a friend and his family.... I hope for your sake they did not claim you as a dependent on their income taxes this past year!!!!!
