<p>When could you start completing the FAFSA?...I Know you could submit it after Jan.1 but can you start working on it now?</p>
<p>I went to the site but all I was able to do was sign up for a PIN. I think the form itself doesn’t go live until January 1. But you can start gathering information and you can start filling out tax forms, which are required for FAFSA (or estimates of what you’ll be submitting on your tax forms).</p>
<p>I agree…gather the info you’ll need and apply for PINs - one for student, one for the parent. I also seem to remember that the fafsa4caster has an option to save the data when you create an account and that will populate some of the FAFSA fields with the general info…but it was a few years ago when we first did this.</p>
