U.S. Department of Education FSA ID Registration Information
What is the FSA ID?
The FSA ID serves as your identifier to let you access your personal information in various U.S. Department of Education systems. It's like the Personal Identification Number that you get from your bank that enables you to access your account. Because your FSA ID serves as your electronic signature, you should not give it to anyone.
Once you successfully complete a request, the Department of Education will e-mail or mail your FSA ID.
When you use your FSA ID, you must type the FSA ID exactly as it appears.
Where can I use my FSA ID?
You can use your FSA ID at these U.S. Department of Education Web sites:
•FAFSA on the Web: Access and complete your Renewal Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).
•You may also use your FSA ID to electronically sign your submitted FAFSA
•Submitting corrections to your processed FAFSA.
•Obtain a copy of your processed FAFSA information.
