<prompt> Human: So my normal job pays me 10 an hour. I want to apply for financial aid but my concern is this: My dad owns a business and for many beneficial reasons my name is also on the account which he uses to deposit money for paying those related bills. So to my benefit, I can prove a great income when its time for me to buy a car or rent a house. But in reality the money isnt mine and I am responsible for my own college cost. Will the above throw a monkey wrench into being approved for FAFSA or will they strictly look at my tax contributions for my real income which is 10hr  <response>: No, the FAFSA is a self-reported form. Consciously reporting inaccurate financial information on the FAFSA is grounds for invalidating your entire financial aid package.But in reality the money isnt mineYour name is on the account. It is yours.
