What is the first step in filling out the FAFSA?
Create your FSA ID!
The FSA ID allows a student and parent(s) to access and sign the FAFSA application.
WHO CREATES AN FSA ID?
- The student AND...
- Parent(s) (based on marital status when filed 2022 income taxes)
- If parents were married and filed jointly, then only one parent needs an FSA ID (including if it’s a step-parent)
- If the parent was single, then only one parent needs an FSA ID
- If parents were married and filed separately, then each one needs to create an FSA ID
*Parents: If you previously created an FSA ID, you don’t need to create another one. You can only have one FSA ID linked to your Social Security number.
WHAT DO YOU NEED TO CREATE AN FSA ID?
Students need to have a Social Security Number (SSN) to create the ID. Parents will be asked to use their SSN to create their ID, but parents without a SSN can also create an FSA ID.

IMPORTANT UPDATE: Financial Aid Application Requirement and Opt-Out Form
Accessing financial aid is key to supporting students with continuing their education to achieve their career aspirations. Under a new state law called AB 469, high school seniors will be required to complete and submit either the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) or California Dream Act Application (CADAA) or an opt-out form. This requirement begins with the 2022-2023 school year for the 2023-2024 FAFSA/CADAA application window, which is from October 1, 2022, through March 2, 2023.
Students and families will receive assistance completing the FAFSA or CADAA from their high school. More information about the FREE workshops and resources available to complete financial aid applications will be shared throughout the school year.
Parents/Guardians who elect not to have their student complete the FAFSA or CADAA should complete an opt-out form by March 2, 2023. The opt-out form will be available at each high school in the College and Career Center.
