  • FAFSA/Dream Act Checklist

    Have your 2020 parent tax information. The deadline to submit is March 2, 2022. If parent financial circumstance has changed significantly since 2020, you are still required to use 2020 information. Once the student decides on the college they will attend, the student must reach out to the college's financial aid office to notify them of the change. Additional paperwork is usually required by the college as proof. This notification usually occurs in April/May. Mr. Limcaco can help with this process. The FAFSA/Dream Act is submitted every year that the student is in college. You will use the same information every year.

    This list is meant to help guide you in collecting all the necessary documents/information needed to be able to complete your application in one night. If you write anything on the list, please do not lose it as it contains information that can result in identity theft.
