Free FAFSA Guide
No matter which way you decide to file, it’s always wise to create an FSA ID. Think of your FSA ID as a username and password, because that’s what it is. Your FSA ID allows you to file the FAFSA (online or through the mobile app), and log into view your federal student loan and grant history. You can also use it to electronically sign your FAFSA, and it is considered to be your personal legal signature.
Each person who needs to provide information for a FAFSA will need their own FSA ID—this means, not only students but parents may need their own FSA ID as well. An FSA ID will be associated with the Social Security number of the account holder.
It is strongly recommended that everyone create their own FSA ID to avoid issues later. If you forget your FSA ID, or it’s not working, you will have the option to click “Manage My FSA ID” on the FAFSA log in page which will give you the option to select “Forgot My Username” or “Forgot My Password”. If you need more help getting into your account, you can always call the Federal Student Aid Information Center (1-800-4-FED-AID).
