What taxes do I need to file my FAFSA?

The FAFSA uses what is called Prior/Prior year tax information. That means the taxes used for the FAFSA aren't from last year but the year before that. For example, the 2023-2024 FAFSA uses the 2021 taxes, not the 2022 taxes.

Due to the IRS allowing for extensions, the previous year's tax information is sometimes unavailable. Using prior prior year will allow more students and families to complete the FAFSA using income information imported directly from the IRS because the taxes will have already been filed and processed.

How Do I complete the FAFSA?

You can complete the FAFSA online at the FAFSA website. If you have never filed a FAFSA, click "Start Here."

You will want to begin by creating an FSA ID. An FSA ID is your username and password for filling out your FAFSA application and your electronic signature for signing and submitting the FAFSA.

For a walkthrough on how to complete the most recent FAFSA, please use this link https://studentaid.gov/apply-for-aid/fafsa/filling-out

When is the FAFSA due?

As soon as you have decided to further your education, you should start the financial aid process by creating your FSAID and then begin filling out your FAFSA form.

The FAFSA becomes available on October 1 each year. We recommend that all students complete the FAFSA as soon as it is available.

Do I need to do the FAFSA?

The FAFSA is not required for students to attend Herzing. However, if you wish to explore federal funding options, the FAFSA is required. Some Herzing students fill it out to receive state or federal grant funding. Please be aware that filling out the FAFSA will not affect your credit and does not mean you are using federal funding.
