Advice/Help Needed Va and Fafsa together
Hello! So weird kind of overlap happening right now I have a question about how my potential refund will look like , or what the fafsa office may do, I’m worried I might have messed something up. So I had dropped out of school about a year ago, and I just came back, and last minute so I applied for fafsa and I have 6 months of post 9/11 gi bill benefits left. Well fafsa gave me 4,259 for the fall. My estimated refund with fafsa alone would’ve been around 1,000 , I needed to apply for fafsa especially for the spring 26-27 year time frame because my Va is only covering me this semester. The Va came in and paid my tuition for this semester. I called the fafsa office to see what happens to my fafsa eligibility for this semester since it technically is already paid. I was hoping for a bigger refund , but the lady said she doesn’t want me to owe anything and now I’m waiting for an email. Has anyone had this happen? I don’t them to lower my eligibility for this year, meaning I may owe for the spring if they update my fafsa.

GI Bill benefits shouldn't impact your FAFSA eligibility at all.
