I may have to fill out a FAFSA after all, but I have a few questions, which I'm sure will be the first of many...I can submit the FAFSA with estimated 2006 tax information, right? Then after submission, make changes after my 2006 taxes are officially complete?Once everything is done, and I get awarded XYZ loans, but for some reason, I decide I don't want or need them. I can just refuse them, right? If so, what do I have to do? Just ignore the award, send the schools a no thank you e-mail?

You can submit the FAFSA with estimated amounts and then make the changes later. I haven't done this personally, though. It might just be hearsay. If you don't want the loans then you can refuse them. It's different for each school, but for my undergrad my loans were posted on my student account. I then had the option of accepting or rejecting them.

The school will have some way of telling you how much you qualify for before you accept them.
