Your signature is always required. When making corrections to your FAFSA online, you must sign electronically with your Federal Student Aid PIN.
If you are a dependent student and you do not correct any of your parents’ information, then a parent is not required to sign your corrected FAFSA.
If you are a dependent student and you do correct your parents’ information, then a parent is required to sign your corrected FAFSA.
If your parent’s signature is required and he or she did not already sign your corrected FAFSA, you can do the following:
- Click Start Here on the home page to log in to FAFSA on the Web.
- Click Provide Signatures.
Your parent should follow the instructions provided on the page to either sign your corrected FAFSA with a PIN, or print a signature page. If your parent chooses to print a signature page, he or she should print it, sign it, and mail it to the address provided.
Note: If your parent chooses to sign with a PIN and does not already have a PIN, he or she can apply for a PIN at www.pin.ed.gov.
