Question
How do I report the financial aid I received last year on my FAFSA?
Answer

Do not report the money on your FAFSA unless you included it in your adjusted gross income (AGI). If you did, then report your full AGI on the FAFSA, but report the amount of student aid in the “How much taxable grant or scholarship aid did you receive?” question.
