I have a student that was wanting to change his marital status <u>after</u> he had already completed that FAFSA. I told him we could not make that change since he was not married at the time he completed the application. However, I am wondering if we can make a Professional Judgment to
<strong>override his dependency status</strong> due to his getting married if we have the marriage license, student and spouse's taxes, etc. I understand that it states in the Handbook that the student cannot update marital status after the time of application, but I have never run across this situation and would like any help anyone can offer.
