COLLEGE STUDENTS! I have a FAFSA question and need help

So I am in grad school right now and I am filling out my FAFSA form.

I need to know if it is better to remove a good amount of money from my bank account before applying or leave it as is.

The reason why I ask this is because I am claiming myself as an independent, I am in grad school and have a full-time job. I know that if it shows that you made under a certain amount of money the pevious year and don't have a lot of money to your name you can get more money from the state or even be eligible for a grant from the state.
I think when I was in undergrad and my parents applied for me they took my money out but I am not sure and neither does my sister

So should I take the money out tomorrow then sign my FAFSA and put the money back in later

OR

Leave it and see what I can get?


Please help me out I want to get this done and over with.
Thanks!
 
I would leave it as it is if I were you. Falsifying any forms like that is never a good idea....
