<p>Am I overreacting? Am I going crazy? I did my FAFSA for the upcoming 2013-2014 school year and had the PIN and everything and finished it back in January. After not hearing back from the FAFSA guys in a few months, I checked today and logged in and they said there was NO PIN ON THIS RECORD. WHAT. What sucks even more is that I saved all my FAFSA data on my old laptop and the charger is broken and I don't know if it's fixable, plus the FAFSA contacts are down until Monday. </p>
<p>What happened!?</p>
<p>Did you log in properly? If you misspelled your name, or got your birthdate off by one day, etc. the system will think that you are a different person and no records will show.</p>
<p>Positive, because you have to put your social security number in there too.
Also, I fixed my laptop finally and found the FAFSA confirmation so I’m going to bring it up with them on Monday. Hopefully this doesn’t screw with my financial aid stuff. :(</p>
<p>Anyone have any other ideas why this would happen?</p>
<p>You would not have a successfully-processed FAFSA without a confirmed PIN. Do you have a Student Aid Report with an EFC? If so, you do have a good PIN. I am not quite sure what you are seeing … can you cut & paste the message you are getting regarding your PIN, and tell me where exactly you see that message (such as, when you first try to sign in …)?</p>
<p>Never mind, it’s been brought up again. That was…bizarre.</p>
