When the government evaluates your ability to pay, they do take into 
account the income and assets of your parents or your spouse (your 
parents only if you graduated from high school less than four years ago.)
.
But $13000 a year is far below the level at which they will want that
person to start contributing to your education.

If you get married before that four years are up they do not
take your parents income into account.(I should know)
Your parents aren't accounted for if:
	1 You are married
	2 You have a kid
	3 You have worked 2 or 3 years fulltime (unsure about the timespan)

And I think that there are 1 or 2 other qualifications.
Note : You only have to have one of these qualifications
	for them to ignore your parents.
