FAFSA signature errors keep repeating even after signing multiple times - can't reach anyone

same thing happened to me!! been trying to sign for like 2 weeks and it keeps asking for signatures again. sooo frustrating

This is happening to a lot of people right now. The signature system has a glitch where it doesn't always register multiple FSA IDs correctly. Try these steps that worked for me: 1. Clear your browser cache completely 2. Use a different browser than you normally use 3. Make sure all contributors are using their OWN devices (not sharing a computer) 4. Log in separately and do the signatures one at a time with 30+ minutes between each person The system sometimes doesn't register signatures properly when they're done too close together or from the same IP address because of security protocols.

Honestly, the FAFSA system is GARBAGE this year!! I've been dealing with technical problems for months. First they lost my W-2 information, then they said my parents need to reverify their contribution even though they already did, and now I'm stuck in verification hell. WHY did they have to change the whole system right when I needed to apply? The old FAFSA wasn't perfect but at least it WORKED!

I actually got thru to someone about this!!! Try signing in incognito mode from your browser that fixed it for me

I had the same issue with signatures disappearing. After trying for weeks to call and getting nowhere, I used Claimyr to reach FSA and finally got through to a real person who fixed it in 5 minutes. They bypass the hold system somehow. Their website is claimyr.com and they have a video showing how it works: https://youtu.be/TbC8dZQWYNQ Turns out there was a flag on our account because my son's name in the system didn't exactly match his SSN record. The agent cleared it right away and our signatures finally stuck.

The signature issue is often related to a mismatch between the information in your FAFSA and your FSA ID. Common problems include: - Name spelling differences (even minor ones) - SSN typos - Date of birth inconsistencies - Email verification issues If the browser solutions mentioned don't work, you may need to verify all contributor information matches exactly between their FSA ID account and what's entered on the FAFSA form. The system is extremely picky about exact matches this year with the new SAI calculation system.

Just wanted to update that I finally fixed the signature issue on mine! For anyone still struggling, here's what worked: 1. I had my dad create a brand new FSA ID (his old one seemed corrupted) 2. We waited 48 hours for it to process with Social Security Administration 3. Then I went in, removed him as a contributor, and added him back with the new FSA ID 4. We both signed from different devices It finally processed our application correctly and we got our SAI score yesterday. Hope this helps someone!

my sister had same problem but college financial aid office helped her fix it maybe call your school??

UPDATE: We finally fixed it! Turns out we had two issues: 1. My husband was using his nickname on the FSA ID but his legal name on the FAFSA form 2. We were all signing from the same computer We updated his FSA ID to match his legal name exactly, waited 24 hours, then signed from separate devices (me on computer, him on tablet, daughter on phone) with about an hour between each signature. Checked this morning and our application is FINALLY processing! Thanks everyone for your help!
