What You Should Do:
1. It is strongly recommended that you select the IRS Data Retrieval option on
your FAFSA. The U.S. Department of Education no longer allows a preparer's
copy of tax returns to satisfy the Verification requirement. You may order a TAX
RETURN TRANSCRIPT from the Internal Revenue Service online at
www.irs.gov by clicking under Tools "Get Transcript of Your Tax Records" or
by phone at 1-800-908-9946. Obtain a 2015 Federal IRS Tax Return Transcript
for yourself and your parent(s)/step-parent. Note: If you used the IRS Data
Retrieval tool to transfer your IRS income data to your FAFSA, you may not have
to submit the IRS Tax Return Transcript. Please refer to your missing information
letter or your LEONet account - "To Do List".
2. Complete and sign this worksheet - you and at least one parent must sign.
3. Submit the completed worksheet, tax return transcripts, and any other documents
to the Office of Financial Aid.
4. After a financial aid representative reviews your information, you could be asked
to submit additional documentation.

Dependent
What is Verification?
Your application was selected by the U.S. Department of Education for review in a
process called “Verification”. The Office of Financial Aid must compare
information from your FAFSA with information you provide on this worksheet
and other documents. If there are differences between your application information
and the documents you submit, your application may need to be reprocessed. The
Office of Financial Aid cannot make any federal financial aid payments available
to you or process a student loan request until all verification requirements have
been met.
