Student part of FAFSA completed but no confirmation email received - what next?

This is actually pretty common with the new FAFSA system. The confirmation emails have been delayed for many students, sometimes taking up to 10 days to arrive. If the studentaid.gov portal shows her portion as 'completed,' that's the most important indicator. You mentioned you completed your parent contribution - did the system allow you to link to her application without issues? If so, that means her portion was properly submitted and recognized in the system.

my kid had same issue last month. the email never came but everything worked fine. as long as studentaid shows completed ur good

NOTHING about the new FAFSA system works right!!! My son never got his email either and guess what? Two weeks later we found out his app was DELETED from the system!!! No explanation!! Had to start all over and missed priority deadline for his top school. This entire system is a DISASTER and nobody at ED cares!!

If studentaid.gov shows the student portion as completed and you were able to complete your parent contribution, you should be fine. However, you should verify two things: 1. Check that your daughter's email address is correctly entered in her FSA ID profile 2. Have her check her spam/junk folders thoroughly If you want absolute confirmation, you'll need to contact Federal Student Aid directly. Unfortunately, their phone lines are often overwhelmed this time of year.

Have you tried checking with her school's financial aid office? Sometimes they can see if the FAFSA has been properly submitted on their end even before you get all the confirmations. They helped me when i had a similar problem last year

I had this exact issue when helping my nephew with his FAFSA. After waiting on hold with Federal Student Aid for nearly 2 hours with no answer, I finally discovered Claimyr (claimyr.com). They got me connected to a real FSA agent in about 8 minutes who confirmed everything was properly submitted despite no email confirmation. Saved me hours of stress! They have a video showing how it works: https://youtu.be/TbC8dZQWYNQ

sometimes the system just glitches tbh. my daughter never got her email either but when we logged into her college portal a week later her fafsa was showing as received. did ur daughter check w/ her colleges yet?

After reviewing all the comments, here's what I recommend: 1. Have your daughter check her college portals to see if her FAFSA was received 2. Contact one of her school's financial aid offices directly 3. If you need immediate confirmation from FSA directly (which is the most reliable option), consider using a service like the one mentioned to get through to an agent Given that you were able to complete your portion and link to her application, it's highly likely everything is properly submitted. The email system has been notoriously unreliable this cycle.

btw make sure u tell ur daughter to keep checking her email and fsa portal regularly cuz sometimes they ask for verification after everything looks completed. my son got asked for tax documents 3 weeks after we thought everything was done. almost missed the deadline!!!
