2020-21 FAFSA

The 2020–21 FAFSA form is available now at https://studentaid.ed.gov

Make the process easier – have these items ready before completing your FAFSA:

Your FSA ID-An FSA ID is a username and password that you can use to log in to certain U.S. Department of Education (ED) websites. We recommend creating your FSA ID early—even before you’re ready to complete the FAFSA. If you are a dependent student, your parent will need to create an FSA ID, too. IMPORTANT: Do NOT create an FSA ID on behalf of someone else. That means parents should not create FSA IDs for their children and vice versa. Doing so may result in issues signing and submitting the FAFSA form and could lead to financial aid delays.
Your Social Security Number - You can find the number on your Social Security card. If you don’t have access to it, and don’t know where it is, ask your parent or legal guardian. You can get a replacement card by contacting the Social Security Administration.
2018 Tax Information-the easiest thing to do is link the tax information through the Internal Revenue’s Data Retrieval Tool. The IRS DRT is the fastest, most accurate way to input your tax return information into the FAFSA form. Not everyone is eligible to use the IRS DRT; and the IRS DRT does not input all the financial information required on the FAFSA form. Therefore, you should have your 2018 tax return and 2018 IRS W-2 available for reference.

To be considered for state grants, your FAFSA needs to be filed by the following deadlines:

Delaware Residents:
April 15, 2020

Pennsylvania Residents:
May 1, 2020

If you have any questions or issues, please contact the Financial Assistance Office at 610-558-5521.

*News from NASFAA 11/21/18: IRS Warns of New Email Scams
The IRS sent out a warning this week about a new email scam that may contain malicious malware. The fraudulent emails, which appear to be sent from "IRS Online," contain an attachment labeled "Tax Account Transcript," or something similar. The IRS, however, does not send unsolicited emails to the public, nor emails containing sensitive information such as that which is included in a tax return. The IRS asks the public not to open the email, and if using a personal computer to delete it or forward it to phishing@irs.gov. If one is using an employer's computer, the IRS asks that the employee notify his or her company of the email.
