After you submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), we will send you a Student Aid Report (SAR). 1  If we have a valid e-mail address on file for you, we will send you an e-mail, within 3 to 5 days, with instructions on how to access an online copy of your SAR.  Hit Enter.
Currently, the soonest a FAFSA application can be filed with the Department of Education is on the January 1st preceding the academic year that you are requesting financial aid for. However by using our service, you can start even earlier. We can prepare your FAFSA for a future academic year now, and file it for you as soon as possible after January 1st. An academic year is the 12 months from July 1st to June 30th. For example, the 2015-2016 academic year begins July 1, 2015 and ends June 30, 2016.
