Notice

Federal Student Aid (FSA) requests extension without change of the Person Authentication Service (PAS) which creates an FSA ID, a standard username and password solution. In order to create an FSA ID to gain access to certain FSA systems (the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) on the Web, National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS), StudentLoans.gov, etc.) a user must register on-line for an FSA ID account. The FSA ID allows the customer to have a single identity, even if there is a name change or change to other personally identifiable information. The information collected to create the FSA ID enables electronic authentication and authorization of users for FSA web-based applications and information and protects users from unauthorized access to user accounts on all protected FSA sites.
