2026 FVT/GE Reporting Update: Optional Fields for Student Level Report and Clearinghouse Validations

FSA has announced additional flexibility for the final FVT/GE reporting cycle that begins July 1, 2026. For reporting year 2026, several Student Level Report fields that were required in 2024 and 2025 may now be left blank. To align with FSA guidance, the Clearinghouse has updated the validation logic in our FVT/GE dashboard for 2026 Student Level Report submissions.
