E. Tax Information
Both the student and the parent(s) are required to submit processed 2018 Federal Tax information. The only acceptable
methods to submit tax information are listed below:
IRS Data Retrieval Tool – Directly import your 2018 IRS data into your 2020-2021 FAFSA by logging into fafsa.gov and select
“Make Correction”. Make sure to use the Data Retrieval Tool for both the student and the parent.
Keep in mind that if your parent’s are married, but filed taxes separately, the data retrieval tool will not work and you will need to order
tax return transcripts for each parent (see information below) or submit a signed copy of their 2018 1040 Federal Income Tax Return
and Schedules 1-6.
Signed Copy of federal income tax return – Provide a SIGNED copy of your and your parent’s 2018 1040 Federal Income
Tax Return and Schedules 1-6.
IRS Tax Return Transcript – Submit your 2018 Tax Return Transcript. You can order the transcript by online at irs.gov or via
automated telephone request by calling 1-800-908-9946. You may also complete IRS Form 4506-T and check mark box 6a.
Please make sure you request an IRS Tax Return Transcript NOT the IRS Account Transcript.
Verification of Non-Filing Letter – If your parent(s) did not file 2018 taxes, and are not required to file taxes, then they must
request a Verification of Non-Filing Letter from the IRS by submitting IRS Form 4506-T, check marking box 7.
Amended Taxes -- If the student or parent filed an amended 2018 IRS tax return, please submit your original 2018 IRS Tax
Return Transcript and a signed copy of the 2018 IRS Form 1040X that was filed with the IRS.
