Advice/Help Needed
My FAFSA form was successfully processed with corrections on April 12th and I got a confirmation email for that. However, I went on the site today and it said that "a system generated FAFSA correction was started" and my FAFSA form is "in review" and waiting to be processed again which was submitted on April 27th but I did not resubmit any new corrections?
I am a bit confused on why my form is in review again since it was already processed and I did not make any changes since then? Is anyone else having this same issue?

Same for me and both my daughters! Beyond aggravating!!! We’ve all be processed for weeks!! WTH?!
Same for me and both of my sons as well. I’ve had nothing but issues with them this year (they lost one of my son’s forms and didn’t submit it to his university!) and now all 3 of ours are in review again. My sons have two weeks left to decide where they will be going in the fall. Stressful is an understatement.
did you ever find out or have a idea why that is happening?
Got ame thing today, after being processed for a while. Also received a thank you for allowing us to access your 2022 taxes etc. We've already received finaid from some schools based on the original SAI. Wondering what will happen now. Smh
Do you have student asset/income or bank balance OR did you report tax return manually or some sort education credit or any other type of credit you reported? Typical vendor issues but we don't have any of that on our FAFSA.
Our FAFSA processed correctly and received SAI on April 15th (third & final correction). We received few official aid packages but one college sent us following email
It seems generic in nature without giving any specific information. I am not sure when our FAFSA will be system re-processed. At the moment it says "Processed"

Subject: Financial Aid Estimate Update
The Department of Education recently identified a vendor issue that was incorrectly calculating the Student Aid Index (SAI) for some FAFSA applicants.
Your FAFSA has been identified as one of the potentially affected records.
What does that mean?
Although we have started to send preliminary financial aid offer estimates to some newly admitted students, due to this error, we are not able to offer you a financial aid award estimate quite yet.
Do I need to take action
No. The records affected by this error will be processed again soon so an accurate SAI can be calculated. When we receive the reprocessed information, we will create a financial aid offer estimate. You will receive an e-mail notification when the estimate is available to view. If action is needed on your part, you will be notified via email.

I read another subreddit and they said that theirs went through fine and that there was just an update on the system I got the same notification hoping it is just an update on their end since my school has not yet reached out about any delay
I also have that "system generated correction" on my FAFSA, I read that it is the internal central processing system and it typically does that. I have received a award letter from a school already so thats why im assuming that.
I think if your parent logins into their account, it automatically starts a correction and puts the form "in review." That is what happened to me.
My fafsa (and kids) was processed in March. We received financial packages last week from colleges. and today I received an email from dept of education that they were reviewing my 2022 taxes. Now on Fafsa it says in review. I’m so confused.
Me too!
