hello so i about 5 days ago i sent columbia an email outlining my financial situation (since theyve said you can email them instead of filling out the CSS form and i attached my parents income forms etc to the email and the two non filer forms for parent and student) and then today i got an email which is subjected “columbia financial aid: march 1st deadline and online tracking” which then links me to the online tracker and it says that the CSS FINANCIAL AID PROFILE and the PARENT FOREIGN TAX RETURN have not been received. im not sure if theyve received my email and still need the css or if they havent actually seen my email yet? it also says in their email if they need a document that doesnt pertain to me then i should email them and tell them because i dont think the parent tax return applies to me. since the deadline is march 1st what should i do? shall i fill out the css profile or email them asking if they have received my financial aid application email

also im an international applicant . thanks for any help
