"For all I know" is used in sentences that the speaker is expressing fear or suspicion. Ex: For all I know, my new girlfriend could be married. My new roommate could have stolen my phone for all I know. "As far as I know" is a way of expressing that you don't know the full story or have complete information on something important being discussed. Ex: As far as I know, Karina's going to accept the job if they offer it to her. Jack's an attorney as far as I know.
