URGENT: Are tax returns really due by Feb. 15?

<p>My dad is still doing them, and I think it's ridiculous how early that is. Does anyone know if the 15th is the absolute final deadline? Also, do the documents have to be mailed? If so, I live in CA so they definitely wouldn't get there in time...</p>

<p>The financial aid website spells it out all out pretty clearly - you may be able to upload some of the docs. It changes every year. Check the dates that they give. If you are past the deadline, it means that your potential aid might get reduced.</p>

<p>Hi, I just called financial aid since we are missing a form needed to complete the 2012 taxes. She said just do the 2012 taxes ASAP and as long as you submit them by the end of February it is okay.</p>

<p>I couldn’t submit mine yet either because we aren’t finished doing them. Seems like we should be okay.</p>

<p>You guys are okay! My friend send his 9 dates late and its acceptable. There’s a leeway for this. It’s not like this is the college app where deadlines is a must.</p>

<p>The 2012 tax return submissions is only for those who have already been ac.cepted right</p>

<p>ebajeba: the need to submit is not indicative of eventual outcome.</p>
