FAFSA Log-In Help?!

Paying for College
1

<p>I am trying to start a FAFSA application from the website and am having trouble logging in. Every time I put my SSN in, it's giving me the error:</p>

<p>"You have entered an invalid response for "Student's Social Security Number". Delete the response you entered and then select the field to see valid responses for this question."</p>

<p>But my SSN is correct! On the "help and hints" section to the right it says to put it in a format without dashes, and I've tried both with dashes (which is how the system fixes it to be when I press enter) and without, and can't seem to login. </p>

<p>Any help?</p>

<p>That is odd, because there is no reason for that. Are you entering a 9-digit number? Are you absolutely sure you are entering it correctly? I don’t remember if the number shows up on the screen or not (sometimes when you enter a SSN it’s all black dots for your security) … do you actually see the numbers?</p>

<p>Make sure you don’t have Caps Lock on. Also, if you are using the numbers pad, make sure that Num Lock is on.</p>

<p>Also, check to make sure that you are allowing the add-in to run. If none of these suggestions work, clear your cache, close your browser, then restart the process.</p>
