bookish has a spectacular aura about
Your W2 has nothing to do with your parents' tax return. They shouldn't file yours with theirs.
They most likely filled out a FAFSA, but many colleges (my younger son's, for instance) also want to see tax returns and/or W2s. Just fax or mail them what they want.
Believe me, I went through this for 7 years straight with my two sons. It's horrible, and I hated it every year. But just send them whatever they ask for, and if you have questions, call up and talk to someone about it. Good luck!!
The younger one graduates next month! I'm done with the horrible financial aid forms!!!
