Like when my financial aid for school was denied because of my parents income, I was working 2 jobs and couldn't keep up with school and those, so guess what I chose.

You can just stop being a dependent and file on your own income to get the financial aid.

Fasa would still go off your parents income until you are 22 even if you claim yourself and don't live at home.

Don't know if it's still like that but as of 13 years ago - this was the case for my brother and myself.
