<p>I'll use Washington University as an example. It has a February 1 deadline for the FAFSA. I believe that the 2014 tax season starts on January 31, so obviously my FAFSA won't be entirely complete by February 1. I have already submitted the FAFSA with estimates based on last year's taxes. Does this count as meeting all of my early deadlines?</p>
<p>Yes, you’ve met the deadline. Particularly this year since the IRS won’t be processing tax returns until Jan. 31, it’s not possible to have taxes filed and processed by Feb. 1. Your aid package for federal aid though will be based on the estimates until you update FAFSA with the actual information. Is this WUSTL? Have you also submitted CSS Profile or their FFP?</p>
<p>Yes, it is WUSTL. Yes, I have also submitted the Profile. Thanks for your answer!</p>
