Welp time to drop out of university again

Need Reassurance...

it always a struggle to not be with family at all due to high difference of dynamic and values ( and abuse and abuse and etc).

After leaving the toxic and unsafe family behind I had move to a different town in a different state for university then getting a job so I can financially be independent for myself but due to some challenges I have to drop out of school because it was not enough at the time to feel secure. Of course I went to CC and was very much happy of the flexibility including being a full time student while being a full time worker. As being independent student for filing with FAFSA usually ask for documentation to prove of their independence ( I only got till next year) .

During my time at CC I have submitted documents to proof my independence and had received my aid package with no issues and there was not much changes from receiving social services within the years and now when I’m transferring back to university and doing the same process but they claim that because of the date I needed new documentation. I went to my social worker who I had gotten an documentation but they’re asking for just another letter and it’s has been a headache for the fast few weeks trying to seek another letter for this and I have already contacted the financial aid office about this and all they say do a payment plan and I feel like if I know I’m eligible to use federal aid I might as well use it while I can ( I’m not even using the loans but I was told it was one of my options ) and I’m just giving up at this point, I went to my job, I went back to my social worker, I even went to my primary care doctor and they’re all basically saying no due to an liability thing and I fully understand but I do have the evidence and I do have documentation. Now I don’t got the best paying job but it’s does pay the bills and I did the math and I would have to basically pick up another job just to pay the tuition and fees for the remaining of undergrad. Ugh I hate how the system works. I hate the stupid new bill, it’s not fair to make a sacrifice to make a living with education that I always been wanting and enjoying since I was a kid.

Anddd that’s it. Thank you!
