Hello: we are NY State residents. At the time of filing the FAFSA we had a minor glitch. Several in state school were selected on the form. The “click here to apply for state aid from HESC” wasn’t selected. We went to the HESC (NY’s college financing /type access for NYS funds) and it said the Student would receive an email in a few days to help them log into HESC and completing the form. So far, no luck (it’s been a week and we don’t have a blizzard). Suggestions on how to proceed, or I guess we can call HESC directly. Thank you.
That happened to us a couple weeks ago. I was disappointed because this was our second time filing and the info. was supposed to migrate from the FAFSA to the TAP application. It seemed to take several days, but we did eventually receive an email and the info. did transfer. If you don’t hear from them, go to the HESC site directly. You can contact them about the problem and even file from there (if you ever miss the link on the FAFSA site that takes you there).
Thank you austinmshauri. I was not sure how long it would take.
You’re welcome. 
Did you receive your SAR back yet from FAFSA?
If it has been a couple of days you should be able to go to
https://www.tap.hesc.ny.gov/totw/
create an account and they will tell you if they can transfer your info from the FAFSA (when you log in)
Sybbie: we got the SAR online and then the letter yesterday, thank you.
