When Should I Check the Status of My FAFSA?

It's always a good idea to check the status of your application during the processing period, but you should check the status at least at the following times.

  • Three to five days after submission — if you used your StudentAid.gov account to e-sign your application.
  • Two to three weeks after submission — if you printed, signed and mailed a signature page.
    • It is highly recommended that you file the FAFSA electronically
