Sister Wives

[piglet1979]

DH had to fill out a FAFSA (or maybe it was a form unique to the school) for the his daughter by his first wife. I remember the school even called him. Come to think of it, it was most likely just her school's form. I had a son by my first husband, and I didn't include him on the FAFSA.

Yes, There is a form that the higher schools use that includes everyone and a ton more detail. I just can't remember the name of it. I had to it for my daughter last year when she applied to Brown, Boston University and a few others. This would be for aid from the school. DH and I are still married so it was easier for us but they did ask for how much our mortgage was and I think medical bills and such.

FAFSA is simpler and if parents are not together then the parent that provides more than 50% is the parent that has to provide there info.

That other form is the CSS Profile from College Board. We had to fill one out when our son went to Penn in Philly, and then the school actually had their own form, so we ended up doing forms 3 times. Thankfully, the money made it worthwhile!

My XH did have to fill out separate forms for two schools DD applied to: UPenn and Syracuse. It wasn't FAFSA but like PP stated, a form directly from the school for their aid. She didn't end up going to either school.
