Commonly while registering for classes, the college office will also hand you a stack of paperwork [that is also required] that applies for Pell Grants and I think puts your name in the bucket for the local community grants bucket.
Our eldest had to fill-out a bunch of that junk when he started college. Our next one has a couple years to go.
the FAFSA form itself is all that is needed for pell grants and government backed student or parent loans. It is generally required by any public university as partor all of their student aid applications, and in many cases, it is the only form needed.
To complete FAFSA you will however need to get your tax returns done, (both parents and student). The earlier the better.
