<p>Ok guys so I've finished the form but I haven't sent it yet because my mom hasn't filed her latest taxes.</p>
<p>I estimated everything, but I'm really just confused about one thing: Once my mom files her taxes can I go back and update the them ONLINE? I been hearing that you need to print out individual forms and send them separately to each school!</p>
<p>Also, if I were to use a fee waiver, would they charge me the second time around? Thanks.</p>
<p>
That’s correct. See this school’s profile instructions as an example [Profile</a> Instructions](<a href=“Home | Financial Aid”>Home | Financial Aid)
</p>
<p>Ice…you need to call EACH school to find out how THEY want the Profile updated. Some will want a printed copy with corrections. Some participate in IDOC and will want 2013 info sent to IDOC. Some will just use the IRS data retrieval tool when you do the FAFSA.</p>
<p>You have to ask EACH school. DD had 3 to update and each one had a different procedure for doing so!</p>
<p>Don’t you think it’s a little costly to print out an application for each school with an update - and mail it to them?</p>
<p>It costs 44 cents to mail a letter. I’m not sure I think that’s excessive. You can make copies for 10 cents a piece at staples. What would the max total be? I can’t imagine the total will be more than $25.</p>
<p>thumper: I guess i’ll get on to contacting the schools individually. I can see how snail mail is affordable for some, but I thought they’d at least think of people who are dirt poor. “maybe 50$” is A LOT of $.</p>
<p>c’est la vie i guess :/</p>
