@marcellafarmer229 6 месяцев назад

Your parents will need to create their own StudentAid.gov accounts. There is a process for parents who do not have SSNs to create an account. Unfortunately, you will not be able to complete your FAFSA submission due to an issue that is preventing parents without SSNs to add their information to the form. Hopefully, this issue will be resolved soon.

My son went all the way through the FAFSA to the signature line. There was no button to transfer data from the IRS even though he meets all eligibility requirements. In the financial section there wasn't even a way to enter anything manually. Didn't even ask about what he had in checking and savings. Has anyone resolved any of these issues? Has anyone even completed it correctly? I told my son not to submit until we knew for sure. Once you submit, nothing can be changed until after info is sent to schools. I'll take the old form any day rather than this!

@marcellafarmer229 6 месяцев назад

Your son may not be required to enter any financial information. At beginning of the new FAFSA, the student gives consent and approval which allows the the federal tax information to be provided for FAFSA. In the past, you would have been given the option to use IRS Data Retrieval Tool to transfer the tax information or you would have entered the information manually. The process is totally different now.

fafsa is not letting me get pass the parent invite. When my sister went to school (years ago) my parents were together. Now that I'm trying to go to school my parents are divorced. Fafsa is asking me to enter the information of the parent that has helped me more financially this year. When i enter my moms information i keep getting told that her information already exists but not her email. When i try to log in with her information i keep getting told that her information doesn't have a account. I'm assuming that my sister made my dad an account and included my moms information on there but I'm not sure. I'm stuck and I'm frustrated and this is only the beginning portion. Does anyone know what i should do?

For the question "Do you have children or other people (excluding your spouse) who live with you and who receive more than half of their support from you now and between July 1, 2024, and June 30, 2025?" you would answer "Yes" which would make you an independent student for purposes of the FAFSA form. studentaid.gov/apply-for-aid/fafsa/filling-out/dependency

@@natashadeyanova5373 I finally spoke to a rep at FAFSA. You have to keep calling until you get put on hold for the next rep. I found out that they expect the forms to process on 1/31 and the best thing to do is wait for it to come out of review and in is processed status. Here, you should be able to view and correct the application. They also suggested starting a new application. They told me the latest one will replace the former. But I am skittish about doing this and making a bad situation worse. I expressed to them my concern about school deadlines. Rep assured me all schools are aware. Its in their best interest because if we don’t get our kid’s fed loans or grants, the schools don’t either. Schools won’t like that. Best I can say is wait for it to process. I think this is what I will do also. When I get in and review it, if need be I can start a new application. Best of luck to everyone and know you certainly are not alone!
