FAFSA question

Hi all, I just submitted my FAFSA but didn’t see a place to include 2017 tax return/income info. How can I include this information?

Also, I am struggling to understand how the FAFSA works generally. I only found some of my schools when I searched to add them. How do I get Federal aid for the others?

    to answer your 2nd question: if you can't find a school's law school specific code on FAFSA, that means you need to use their FAFSA code for the school as a whole, not just the law school. For example, for Fordham you would have to choose the Fordham University option since they don't have a law school specific option. it confused me at first too, but this is how it works. to be safe though, go to each school's financial aid page and look for their FAFSA codes and double check it, that's what I did.

    The 2018-2019 FAFSA use 2016 data.

    It changes last year that why you can fill it out in October.

    If my income has changed drastically since 2016, how do I include that information?
