Here is the link to create or login to your FSA ID: https://fsaid.ed.gov/npas/index.htm

An FSA ID is made up of a username and password and can be used to log into the online Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA®) form. While you aren't required to have an FSA ID to complete and submit a FAFSA form, it's the fastest way to sign your application and have it processed.

What will we need to create an FSA ID?
STUDENT (The student submitting an application is required to create an FSA ID/Username.)

• Email address (use personal email address, not your CHS email)

• Social security or green card

PARENT (Parent's are ONLY required to create an FSA ID/ Username if they have a social security number, if they do not, then they will just physically sign the completed application.)

• Email address (use personal email address, not your CHS email)

• Social Security - If neither parent/guardian hold a social security or green card, DON'T BE FRIGHTENED! As long as the student has a social security number or green card, they are eligible for FAFSA, regardless of the parents immigration status. Please call or email Ms. Diaz in the Career Center for further assistance. 623-915-8238 or email Rachelle.Diaz@guhsdaz.org

Here is the link to start or finish your FAFSA: https://studentaid.gov/h/apply-for-aid/fafsa

If you’re starting for the first time on the myStudentAid mobile app, you will select “START HERE” on the FAFSA tile, select your role, and then enter your FSA ID. You cannot fill out the FAFSA form on the mobile app without an FSA ID.

The following tips apply whether you’re filling out the form online or on the mobile app:

• Near the beginning of the application, you’ll create a “save key,” a temporary password that you’ll use if you start your FAFSA form, save it without finishing it, then want to open it again later to finish it. One benefit of the save key is that students and parents can use this function to access the FAFSA form if they are completing the application in separate locations. (Unlike with the FSA ID, which needs to be kept private, it’s okay to tell your parent what your save key is.)

• If you’re a male between the ages of 18 and 25 and you haven’t registered with the Selective Service System, select “Yes” when you’re asked if you would like to be registered. Otherwise, you won’t be eligible to receive federal student aid. This requirement applies to any person assigned the sex of male at birth.

• Listing Colleges and/or Career Schools: While completing the FAFSA form, you must list at least one school to receive your information. The schools you list will use your FAFSA information to determine the types and amounts of aid you may receive.
