[Oasfaa] Homeless question

[Jonna Raney]

We have a persistent mom who wants us to accept her explanation as verification the student is "Homeless or at risk for homelessness". She states they "got kicked out of their house and now live in a travel trailer in a trailer park." Based on that information, I would normally be inclined to accept her explanation and agree with her. HOWEVER, the family income is $70,000 and she states there has been no change to that income. Our reasoning is that the family would not qualify for any public assistance with that income. She further states that there is no third party to confirm her story because it occurred after the student graduated and they did not utilize a shelter, etc. 

She is quoting the McKinney-Vento act and believes she qualifies based on that act. 

I think she may be a little full of bologna, but I'd like your opinion as to what you would do in this situation. 

Thanks in advance, 
Jonna
