Frequently Asked Questions  

Q: Who should complete this aid application?  

A: Whomever the child resides with should fill this application out, whether it is a parent, grandparent, aunt/ uncle, or legal guardian. There is a section within the application where you can enter contributions from non custodial parents and relatives.  

 

Q: Why do I need to input my spouse’s information if I am remarried and they are not legally responsible for my children?  

A: FACTS calculation works off of the total household income, therefore including all income, whether the party is legally responsible for your children or not. Our system however, does take into effect your spouse’s expenses as well as their income. It is important to list all expenses that are asked of within the application.  

 

Q: I do not have the required tax documents. HELP!  

A: Include the most recent tax documentation you have available. If you are asked for a specific line from a tax document that you have not yet completed, please estimate the projected amount.
