2023–2024 Parent marital status verification
If this item is listed under your Financing Tasks in My ASU, your financial aid disbursement will be placed on hold until you provide the information.
Why this is needed
The parent marital status reported on your FAFSA conflicts with the information reported on your household size form, your parent tax return or other documents submitted in support of your financial aid application. Therefore, clarification of your FAFSA parent's current marital status is required.
This form must be completed by the parent listed on the FAFSA. You will need to provide the parent guest access on My ASU in order for them to electronically complete and sign parent forms. To grant your parent guest access, visit My ASU - Add a Guest. Under Finances, check the box next to View my tasks. Once you provide guest access, your parent will need to complete the Parent Signature Verification task in order to sign and complete forms electronically.
