<p>We just submitted the Profile to a school requiring the documents be submitted to IDOC. We got an email almost immediately telling us what to do (print out the cover sheet, bubble in the things you are sending...mailing address, etc). </p>
<p>We also handwrote the changes and mailed them to each school. I do wish the CB would allow ONE time to go in and change online. Actually...even better would be if finaid deadlines for submission to the colleges was Feb 15...which would give most folks adequate time to complete their taxes before doing the finaid forms. It would save a LOT of time (and one would think..money) if that deadline were changed and the colleges didn't have to deal with amended Fafsa and Profile forms.</p>
<p>I called most of the schools my kids applied to in order to follow up to see what was received. Each one told me not to bother changing the Profile, unless it was a huge discrepancy. Some said not even to bother correcting FAFSA, as they just review your 2005 tax return anyway. (I did correct FAFSA though.)</p>
