You really can’t pull the take them off of your taxes, declare them independent anymore. You’re pretty much stuck with them until they turn 25 or until they get married. I looked at doing that with my son, but that loophole has pretty Much been closed and done away with.
Let me stress I AM NOT ADVOCATING LYING ON THE FAFSA
That said, virtually no school checks info unless the application is chosen for verification and approximately 33% get chosen randomly
Also the age for being independent is 24 not 25 (which is ridiculous)
