Can I trick the government into thinking I'm still a student so I can get more free money?

Just wondering.

They just "suspended" the tuition reimbursement program at other work. Seriously, that was like our one, and only job perk and now its gone. I blame canada.

Sure you can. Use last year's numbers as an estimate.

I just use the amount on my last paycheck stub of the year as an estimate and update later.

So the application is free? Great. Is the money free? Not so great.
My student days of matriculation are long gone. I think.

It does give you free money. It determines how much free money you get.

I quit my job halfway through the year and I got married. My husband got a new job halfway through the year and got married. And we're buying a house. Taxes are going to be godawful to do this year.

Well, the first two acronyms are for Robert Heinlein's name and "there ain't no such thing as a free lunch", but I can't remember what the third one is.

Maybe something along the lines of "there is no free money".

But the Pell Grant is pretty much free.

Whether I got the grant or not, I still have to pay taxes on my income today. So even though I am paying taxes then and now, I still got money that I wouldn't have received unless I filled out the application, for just filling out the application.

I wouldn't pay less taxes if I hadn't received the grant, so it's basically free money.

Sure, I might pay less taxes if the grant didn't exist, but I'm positive that my not getting the pell grant is not grounds for it's removal from the US Dept of Education. It'd still exist whether or not I received it.

Yes as to my acronyms. Just as there is no free admission to the Museums in Washington D.C., someone's tax money is at work.
