I need some information on fraud and the FAFSA. It seems that a parent has filed out the finace information only using the step parents income even though the mother has legal custody and the child has lived with the parent for 12 months and recieves a large amount of support. She did not use her employment numbers or the support numbers when filling out the childs form. Is this fraud?
