You did not report information about your parents on your FAFSA because you indicated you are homeless or at risk of homelessness. You must review this form carefully and take the appropriate actions.

Definition

You may fall under this category if you are not in the physical custody of your parent or guardian and are “homeless” meaning lacking fixed, regular, and adequate housing. This might include living in shelters, motels, vehicles, or temporarily living with other people because you have nowhere else to go. Also, if you are living in any of these situations and fleeing an abusive parent you may be considered homeless even if your parent would provide support and a place to live. If you are unsure if your situation meets these definitions or you need help in knowing what documentation to submit, call Mid's Financial Aid team at (989) 386-6664. The National Center for Homeless Education 1-800-308-2145 is also available if you have questions.

If you made an error on your FAFSA and are not homeless or at risk of homelessness, you do not need to return this form, however, you must change your answer on your FAFSA and provide your parent(s)’ financial information and signature.

Complete this section and return this form if at any time on or after July 1, 2024, you were an unaccompanied youth who was homeless or at risk of being homeless. We may request a statement from an individual with whom you have temporarily lived with or who knows of your situation. Please provide documentation from an outside agency if possible.
