My friend is a resident here in America, but her papers are still getting processed, so she is given a TIN for the meanwhile and not a SSN. The FAFSA only takes applicants with a valid Social Security number and nothing else.
Both the dependent student and his/her parent or guardian. If applying online (which you should), both student and parent or guardian must apply for a Personal Identification Number (PIN), which enables both parties to sign documentation electronically. Once the PIN has been received, you may then go to the free FAFSA application site and apply. Apply for the PIN at www.pin.ed.gov. Fill out the free FAFSA application at www.fafsa.ed.gov. Remember the application is free. If the site is asking you for money, your on the wrong site.
