We eventually reached a quiet compromise...they kept my returns for a few years and quit trying to jack my bank accounts. I fought off about a half-dozen levy attempts. I also gave them a significant check a few years into the issue, but a lot of that was the interest and penalties since it was about three years before they came after me. And when they came after me, I had moved elsewhere- they kept mailing to the address of record for the year in question instead of the most recent filing address. Big mess, but I digress...Skyhook wrote:Ouch for the IRS!

Then there was that nasty little miscalculation tiff with the IRS over a filing in the 90's (interest and penalties are a bitch).
However, not to despair because eligibility still exists for Stafford at $20.5K plus whatever other private loans might be taken...the Stafford was all that populated with my FAFSA completion.
After you complete the FAFSA, it gives the confirmation page. The eligibility for the Stafford was on there.Well, thanks for the rundown on those questions.
Looks like I've got a some definite EFC no matter what I do.
Where does it say you are eligible for the Stafford loans?
And are you really too old for this shit? I'm wondering if I am...
The 'too old' is a running joke in the office...but I am in the over-40 category. I've got a firm offer of employment in my niche area if and when I finally the Bar card...my thing is having to give up a chunk of income for three years to basically do what I have been doing for the past decade.
