This means when completing the Dependent Verification form, you listed two parents in the household but on the FAFSA you indicated your parent was divorced/separated or never married.

OSFA will use the parent’s marriage license to update the marital status on the FAFSA and you will be asked to provide tax information for your parent and stepparent.
