<p>i was told that filling out the fafsa was a long time consuming process. but with everything in hand, it took me about 15 minutes. I am starting to think i did something wrong....?</p>
<p>Depends on how simple or complex your situation is?</p>
<p>It took me a good 1 hour and a half.</p>
<p>IMO, it only gets complicated if you have income from various sources, and investments.</p>
<p>Initially, it didn't take long either for me. but I ended up with mistakes and a $15,000 efc, which is completely wrong</p>
<p>Researching all the current balances and assets generally takes a while. Once you have them in front of you, actually filling them in on the FAFSA is a snap.</p>
