2019-2020 Verification Worksheet
Student Name
CCM ID#
*Your application was selected for review in a process called “Verification”. Verification is a process governed by Federal and/or State regulations and is used to ensure that the information applicants
report on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is accurate. In this process, County College of Morris will compare information from your 2018-19 FAFSA with this form, and copies
of 2017 IRS Federal Income Tax Return Transcripts, W-2’s from all employers and other additional documents requested. Information retrieved using the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Data
Retrieval Process and not subsequently changed, is considered acceptable documentation for IRS-related information and your Federal Tax Return Transcript will not be required.
The law requires us to ask for this information before awarding Federal aid. If there are differences between your application information and your financial documents, County College of Morris will
need to make corrections. Additionally, I understand that if registered for courses not applicable to my current major, I am responsible for payment. If you do not complete this form or submit all of the
required documents requested, we will not be able to complete the processing of your financial aid. Feel free to contact the financial aid office at finaid@ccm.edu
if you have any questions. Please read
and complete all sections below.

SECTION C: TAX FILERS MUST PROVIDE IRS TAX INFORMATION (2 OPTIONS)
Option 1). If you did NOT retrieve and transfer your (and your spouse’s, if married), and/or your parent(s)’ income tax return information using the IRS Data Retrieval Process when
initially completing the FAFSA on the Web, you can make corrections using FAFSA on the Web at www.fafsa.ed.gov to subsequently transfer this information. If we receive a corrected
FAFSA indicating that the transfer was successful, the 2017 IRS FEDERAL TAX RETURN TRANSCRIPT document request for you (and your spouse, if married) and/or your parent(s)
will be removed. Check Financial Aid Online to check the status of this requirement.
Option 2). If you did not utilize the IRS Data Retrieval process, you must submit a copy of your 2017 FEDERAL TAX RETURN TRANSCRIPT. NOTE: Personal, self-filed and or
accounting firm copies (IRS 1040, 1040A, 1040EZ) are no longer acceptable with the exception of tax returns from Puerto Rico or foreign income tax returns. To request a copy of your
