FAFSA Priority Deadline

I will be attending George Mason in the Fall and their Website says the priority deadline for their FAFSA application is March 1.

I have just filed my tax return electronically and cannot yet automatically generate the information needed from the IRS. I read that I will have to update my FAFSA application once the IRS tax return information becomes available in a couple weeks.

My question is will the fact that I will have to come back and update my completed FAFSA application in a couple weeks mean that I will miss the priority deadline even though technically I completed the FAFSA application???

Pretty sure you can just input the information based off of your tax return. I don't think you need to wait until it will automatically populate...

I hope....

I just input it by hand.
