Although I filled out the FASFA in Februrary, I checked the status of it in April and it said "parent's signature missing," and so I tried to provide a signature with my mother's PIN since my mother is not here and I have no way to communicate with her. When I tried to use my mother's PIN I got a message that said her PIN had been deactivated and so I had to create a new one for her. So I created a new one for her and when I tried to enter the information to retrieve the new one I got a message that said the information I had entered did not match what they had on file for her. Afther May 25th I no longer had regular access to a computer since I had to leave college for the summer and stay with my grandma who has no computer. Yesterday was the first chance I got to come to the public library and look at my FASFA, and it still says "parent's signature missing," and my financial aid has not gone through, and so my college is saying I owe $7,000 even though my classes start August 27!!!

yesterday after I discovered that it still said "parent's signature missing," then I tried to call the FASFA hotline and ask them what the problem might be. They said it might be because I had put my mother's maiden last name on the FASFA, yet I had used her other last name (from my father) when I made her PIN, so they said I had to change my mother's maiden last name on the FASFA to the other last name (from my father), and then after I did that I should be able to sign the FASFA with my mother's PIN. I did change my mother's maiden last name on the FASFA to the other last name (from my father), and yet it still will not work when I try to sign the FASFA with my mother's PIN!!! I even made a PIN for my FATHER and not even THAT will work!!! WTF??? How can I get a "parent's signature" if none of the friggin PINs I use will work??? Also, if nothing else, I just have one question, please: since I did the FASFA early (in February) am I still considered for the maximum financial aid?

or will I be less eligible for aid now since my FASFA has not gone through yet? (since it still says "parent's signature missing"?)
