Can you still file the FAFSA if you didn't file a tax return the previous year?

Can you still file the FAFSA if you didn't file a tax return the previous year?
I am a grad student who spent 2008 in Turkey and am wanting to know if I am able to submit a FAFSA for 2009/2010 without having filed a tax return. Many thanks for your help!

yes you can still file for FAFSA. I too did not have a tax return and filed and have received mine now. So yes hurry and file though because the sooner you do the more likely you are to get approved.

How do I keep my girlfriend in the USA?

How do I keep my girlfriend in the USA?
She just graduated with masters on student visa... she is from Turkey has three months (i believe) from graduation to find a job. she is afraid that she will not be able to find a job that will assist her with sponsorship so we are considering marriage. if we DO get married (here in Massachussets) what is the process? how long will it take? will she immediately be able to stay?

she is using you for a visa you fuckkkktard
2 :
If a person enters the US and marries a US citizen, that person immediately becomes a US legal permanent resident (LPR). In addition, they are allowed to apply for citizenship two years before the typical allowed date (normally LPRs are allowed to apply five years less 90 days after they become an LPR, but LPRs by way of marriage may apply three years less 90 days after that point). All other rules still apply for application for citizenship. Marriage to a US citizen does not automatically confer permanent resident status nor assure citizenship to a foreign national regardless of the circumstances. Stricter immigration enforcement makes it difficult for foreign nationals to amend their visa status.

To summarize the process - you get married same way as anyone else, then file a bunch of forms (total cost of filing fees will be $1365, medical exam can cost anywhere from $300-$500), she will be be called for fingerprints, she will get a work permit within 3 months of applying that will allow her to work anywhere while the case is pending, both of you will be interviewed and if approved, she will get her green card. You will have to sign an Affidavit of Support and must meet the poverty guidelines in order to sponsor her ($19,000/yr for a household of 2). She gets to stay during the entire process. If everything goes smoothly, she should get her green card in several months.

How to gain CA Residency Status?

How to gain CA Residency Status?
I'll be applying for UC Berkeley in 2 years. I'm a U.S. citizen but we currently live in Turkey. Since we have financial problems my twin sister and I need financial aid to attend to college. I've noticed that out-of-state students pay about $20.000 more. In order to gain a residency status, while my sister and I are still high school students in Turkey can my parents rent an apartment in CA and gain residency status?

You mean rent an empty apartment while still living in turkey, and saying you are living in california. That sounds dishonest to me. sori : (
