FAFSA Paper Form 2023 - 2024

FAFSA applications are available to submit for the 2023 - 2024 academic year. Students and parents can fill out paper FAFSA form on paper and mail it to the Department of Education.

Before filling out a paper FAFSA form, consider submitting it electronically. There are plenty of upsides to submitting FAFSA online. It will take significantly shorter for the Department of Education to process the application in comparison to mailing a paper form. This is also safer if you want to avoid mailing tax returns.

With the online application, you aren’t going to attach tax transcripts to the FAFSA. Instead, it will be sent to the Department of Education without the applicant even seeing it. This transaction is done automatically with the Internal Revenue Service’s Data Retrieval Tool.
