<p>So I have yet to complete my financial aid. </p>
<p>Yes i know what you're thinking "the due date was a month ago, you are a buffoon!(idk, do people even use this word?)" </p>
<p>Hear me out though, i turned in my FAFSA on time and my CSS kinda on time (read: a couple days late) but I have yet to turn my parents W2 as well as their tax reports simply because they just filed them. </p>
<p>Am i doomed for financial aid or is there a possibility I might still get some dough?</p>
<p>I’m in the same situation; my parents are not filing until March 28th. Please advise!</p>
<p>Us too, not even close to filing yet. Anyone from previous years in this position? What was the outcome?</p>
<p>They said to mail it in as soon as possible when you get them.</p>
<p>Finish those required materials asap. Your financial aid application will be processed based on the queue. It might take some time. But my experience indicated the office won’t ignore it.</p>
<p>I sent my 2011 taxes with a cover letter explaining our circumstances and why we’re filing so late this year, as well as an estimated date of 2012 tax return arrival. Hopefully they accept that and I still get some aid money…I’m in this situation with all of my schools.</p>
<p>I’m in the same situation here! Not too worried, and hopefully I shouldn’t be</p>
<p>I am in the same situation. I think they’ll understand.</p>
<p>So the general consensus seems to be that it’s not that big a deal, which is comforting for sure. But I also would like to know if I turn the rest of my materials in the coming week, will I be able to get my financial aid package before the May 1st commitment date?</p>
<p>Bumpppity, can anyone answer my last question. </p>
<p>It would be greatly appreciated.</p>
<p>You’re not doomed. Your FA will be pending until they get your documents i think.</p>
<p>On the portal, it says the received all my documents. Do you think I will receive my financial aid award by the May 1st decision date?</p>
