Do you have to fill out FAFSA to apply for scholarships?

Question

In order to receive scholarships do you have to fill out and submit FAFSA? Because I have not filled out FAFSA yet but have found a scholarship that I want to apply for. Also do you have to apply for FAFSA every year?

Answer 1

Yes, you  have to file the fafsa every year.  As soon as you do your taxes, do a new fafsa.  Also, you do not have to do a fafsa to apply for scholarships unless the scholarship asks for an EFC number.  Then you would.
