Should I just turn in my FAFSA even if I don t have 2014 income tax ready?

My parents won t have it ready until mid-February which is frustrating when I need it before January 29. I wanted to submit it as "will file" and use 2013 information however according to my parents their income for 2014 would be a tad different from 2013 so I should just wait.

Update:

Forgot to add: I can't afford to wait when spring semester starts next week for me and I Feb. 1 is the priority deadline for the college I'm going to transfer to Fall 2015. So should I submit it? Aye or Nay?

    Yes, submit ASAP using estimates from 2013. You will be able to go back in later and make corrections with the accurate 2014 tax figures. The important thing is just getting the application submitted by the school's priority deadline, even if the figures aren't totally correct.
