When students and parents are completing the FAFSA, you will each need to have an FSA ID number. This number will allow you to electronically sign your FAFSA and in the future it would let you sign promissory notes as well as complete future FAFSA's.
The student and parents will each create their own separate numbers. You cannot use the same e-mail addresses for the creation of the FSA ID so if you don't have an e-mail address and have been using your parents e-mail in the past then this is the ideal time to create your own e-mail account.
You will make your own challenge questions to help you access your number if you forget it in the future so it is important to write down those challenge questions and answers to make sure you will remember it down the road. I recommend that students and parents make a folder related to FAFSA where you store all of this information so that you will always have it when you might need it.
