FAFSA Form Wrong Year...

<p>Got email from admission to fill out FAFSA. I click on the link, create a profile and created a pin. In the process of filling out the form, I realized in the middle of the form that its the --wrong year - 2013-2014. The new form will be available Jan 1st. I clear all the data in the form and did not signed and submit the form. Will this mean I still have a 2013-2014 application? and will they send any info of me to the schools I enter in the form? Also, when I do fill out the forms for 2014-2015 will that be a renewal? I hope not..! I guess I am a bit paranoid! </p>

<p>Anyone ever fill out a wrong year FAFSA form?</p>

<p>The correct form, which will not be available till Jan 1st will not be a renewal because this years form will not be processed.</p>

<p>Don’t worry about it. Just do the correct form after January 1.</p>

<p>

No, if you

</p>

<p>Thanks so much. Should I call them and make sure my profile is deleted? I guess I am paranoid…:(</p>

<p>If you didn’t submit it, how would they have your info?</p>

<p>It doesn’t matter! Every year current students submit new FAFSA forms. What they filled out in previous years does NOT matter…and theirs were submitted (well…except the demographic info can be ported into the current form).</p>

<p>Really…forget this. You did not submit the form.</p>

<p>But DO save your PIN. You will use it to complete the 2014-2015 FAFSA.</p>

<p>Thanks!, its me being paranoid through all these processes. You mean, i can create a PIN and don’t submit an application?</p>

<p>

Yes, you can have a PIN and never submit the FAFSA.</p>

<p>Yes, the PIN is the way to do an electronic signature. You will use it to sign all the FAFSAs you sign and submit. Doesn’t matter that you didn’t use it to sign and submit the incorrect FAFSA you started. Please, the paranoia is not warranted, you are fine.</p>

<p>Thanks all!..Whew, feel so much better now. I love this community…:)</p>
