[FAFSA®] How do I complete the FAFSA® if my parents are foreign or undocumented? Does my parents' citizenship status affect my eligibility for federal student aid?

You can fill out the FAFSA® as normal.

The FAFSA® never asks about your parents' citizenship status. Your parents' citizenship status does not affect your eligibility for federal student aid. Parents without a Social Security number can still create an FSA ID to access the FAFSA®; and provide necessary information.
