Summary
This bill amends the Higher Education Act to require the Secretary of Education to implement an identity fraud detection system to review each FAFSA application submitted on or after October 1, 2026. If an application presents reasonable suspicion of identity fraud, the Secretary must notify the applicant and the designated institutions. Institutions must then verify the applicant's identity through in-person or live audiovisual verification before disbursing federal financial aid. The Secretary must report to Congress on the system's implementation and effectiveness annually.
