URGENT: Help on Fafsa!!!!!

<p>I submitted my Fafsa in January and I needed to change estimations from the 2007 tax return as well as adding more schools to the list ( I applied to 15 schools). I didn't want to do anything until my parents received their taxes for 2008...</p>

<p>The problem is, my parents received their new taxes just today and went on to correct it, not knowing my PIN number so they requested a duplicate, which tells me that I need to wait 1-3 days for it to be processed!!! </p>

<p>*It says: " You will not be able to add or delete a school code until your PIN information has been verified by the Social Security Administration (1-3 days from the date you first apply). After we complete this verification, you will be able to use your PIN for all purposes, including adding or deleting school codes." *</p>

<p>I will miss my (3/1-3/2) deadline for many schools!!!!</p>

<p>My first priority now is just to have the FAFSA report sent to those schools that have not yet received them. How can I add schools and send the fafsa without having to have the PIN number verified? I know the PIN number, I just have it as "conditional" so the Social Security Administration must verify my ssn. </p>

<p>Also: I already received my SAR and DRN number.</p>

<p>Can I add schools over the phone???
I would really appreciate it if you helped me out here...thanks!</p>

<p>The FAFSA system will show the schools that are working on your financial aid package, that you originally met their deadlines with your first "transaction" in January (presuming you actually submitted it then--presumably you printed out a sheet that said you submitted it). Your corrections will then be shown as a second transaction that has been completed and submitted on whatever date. When you look up its status, it will show a list of transactions (I think that is what they are called) with a number to the left of them--that number is a hotlink to each version that you submitted.</p>

<p>I think schools are added without making it a new transaction, as I recall--changes in the personal and financial info change the version, but new school codes are just a smaller change.</p>

<p>I would think the school would send you notice that they could not access your FAFSA if they are trying to do a finan. aid package and you haven't added their code. Of course that could tip their hand....</p>

<p>So you mean, that if I call FAFSA to add more schools, then it would be ok and submitted in time if I were to do it tomorrow?</p>

<p>Anyone have an answer for me?</p>

<p>I added new schools in addition to the 10 schools through the phone this morning. My status for the FAFSA says it is currently processing, and it takes 3-5 days to process the new information. </p>

<p>Schools say that "the fafsa must be filed on 3/2"....would this mean that I missed my deadline?</p>
