Hi, I am wondering if I need to do anything else wrt the CSS Profile. We submitted it in January with preliminary/estimated information for 2015. We have filed our 2015 taxes and I updated the FAFSA. I also got an IDOC request (2 schools sent a request), and all of those documents (inc. tax returns) have been uploaded. One of the schools that apparently doesn’t use IDOC sent me a separate request.
After all that, my question is – do I need to anything else for the CSS profile? Or will schools that want more send a request via IDOC or separately?
Thank you!
You’ll need to check with each school that required CSS that hasn’t already contacted you. They may just use the IDOC updates or the DRT from the IRS, or they may have additional requirements. Nice job of keeping on top of all that, BTW.
FWIW, I don’t recall updating the CSS profile for any school (including he school my kids matriculated) when my kids applied. So I assume they used the uploaded documents and/or the DRT updates to update it themselves.
YMMV
@“Erin’s Dad” @ClaremontMom Thanks to you both! This has been more work than I anticipated and I’d hate to miss something at the last minute that might impact DD’s ability to get aid. There are only 2 CSS profile schools that haven’t contacted me or made an IDOC request, so I’ll call them Monday just to make sure. Thanks again!
