<p>It's been a week since I updated my FAFSA using the IRS Retrieval Tool but I haven't received an email with my SAR yet. I need to add another 8 schools to the FAFSA, but am not sure whether or not I can remove the schools listed right now. From my understanding, you have to wait until the email with the SAR comes before removing it, but when I looked at my correction history, it showed that the updated FAFSA has been "processed" and my SAR/EFC did not change from the FAFSA completed without the IRS Retrieval Tool to the FAFSA completed with.</p>
<p>I'm thinking that because my SAR/EFC remained the same, they haven't emailed me, but I'm not so sure...</p>
<p>Can anyone verify that I am safe to remove the schools currently listed and add my 8 schools?</p>
<p>Perhaps the mail ended up in your spam folder?</p>
<p>Did your data change when you used the retrieval tool? </p>
<p>If it has been a week, I would feel pretty confident you are fine to remove and put on new schools. If all else fails, then you just resend it to your original group :-)</p>
<p>I updated the Fafsa for 3 kids, got 2 emails the next day and never heard back on the third. I used the online chat the other day, and somebody looked it up for me and told me all was good. You could try that, it was relatively painless.</p>
<p>I did not get the e-mail with “Student Aid Report” in the subject line when I went back into the completed SAR and used the Data Retrieval Tool. I received a e-mail that had “Confirmation” in the subject line and there was a “SAR” on line. So perhaps when you make changes for any reason the confirmation e-mail has confirmation as opposed to Student Aid Report as the subject.</p>
