FAFSA Application Glitch - Can't Submit or Reach Support. Help!

Ugh, FAFSA issues are the worst! I had a similar problem last year. Have you tried clearing your browser cache and cookies? Sometimes that helps with weird glitches.

I found a method to get someone on the phone. I used this site's (claimyr.com) calling tool that dials the phone menu, stays on hold, waits for a live agent to pick up, then sends the call to my phone. It does cost $20, but it works. Here's a video about it: https://youtu.be/TbC8dZQWYNQ

Have you checked the FAFSA website for any known issues or maintenance schedules? Sometimes they post updates about system problems there.

omg i'm dealing with the exact same thing rn!!! 😭 this system is so broken i swear

Here's what I've learned from dealing with FAFSA issues over the years: 1. Try accessing the site during off-peak hours (like early morning or late night) 2. Double-check all your info - sometimes a small typo can cause big problems 3. Use the FAFSA4caster tool to estimate your aid before submitting 4. Keep a detailed log of all your attempts, including error messages 5. Reach out to your school's financial aid office - they might have insider tips 6. Check if your state has a FAFSA completion event coming up 7. Last resort: submit a paper FAFSA (yes, it still exists!) Hope this helps someone! Remember, persistence is key with these bureaucratic nightmares.

have u tried turning it off and on again? 🤣

I heard they're updating the FAFSA system soon. Maybe wait a few days and try again?

Pro tip: Tweet at their official account. Sometimes they respond faster there than through official channels.

This is why we need comprehensive education reform. The whole system is a joke.
