FAFSA Pin, Pending Identity Confirmation?

<p>What does this mean exactly? From what I gather, the PIN has to go through the SS office (but why?!) and will get approved, but. How long does this take? I need to fix a birthate on my FAFSA, and the FAFSA currently says "Processed Successfully". There is a link to make changes, BUT, when I enter my PIN, it says, "The following error(s) have occurred: Because your PIN is considered to be conditional until we confirm your identity with the Social Security Administration (SSA), it has limited use. We will notify you within 1-3 days when your identity has been confirmed." How long will this take? I'm so worried.</p>

<p>My guess would be that you have caused a confusion because of the mistyped birthdate. The data base has picked up on the fact that there is someone with your name, social security number, and a different birthdate.</p>

<p>Try calling and speaking with someone live in order to clear up the issue.</p>
