FAFSA IRS Data Retrieval still not working

<p>Just wondering if anyone else has had this issue. Data retrieval worked just fine for me, but it isn't working for my son. He filed his taxes about 6 weeks ago and is a first time filer. He did owe money which was paid by EFT two days after filing. Any thoughts on this? Should he just keep trying every couple of days?</p>

<p>It appears to be the case - systemwide - that first time filers are having issues getting tax transcripts this year, so I’m not surprised if the DRT isn’t working either. Contact the school financial aid office, explain the problem, and ask them what they suggest you do.</p>

<p>Also make sure he’s putting his address exactly as he put it on the tax return. Two years ago a period after “N” as in “North-streetname” held me up for days until I thought to try it without.</p>
