Why is the FAFSA website down?
The FAFSA website is still online but it is very slow to the high volume of traffic to the website.

When to submit FAFSA form?
The federal government accepts FAFSA forms from the 1st of October 2022 through the 30th of June 2023, but many US universities and scholarships may require that a FAFSA be submitted sooner.
