IMPORTANT: If you were married on the day you signed and submitted the FAFSA, you must answer all tax and income
questions for you AND your spouse. **If you were not married or were separated, please ignore all references to “spouse”.
The best way to verify income is by using the IRS Data Retrieval Tool (IRS DRT) that is part of FAFSA on the Web at
FAFSA.gov. In most cases, no further documentation is needed to verify 2017 income information that was transferred into the
student’s FAFSA using the IRS DRT if that information was not changed by the FAFSA filer.
