INCOME VERIFICATION
UNTAXED INCOME INFORMATION
STUDENT (and SPOUSE, if applicable) INCOME
The easiest way to verify income is to use the IRS Data Retrieval Tool when completing or updating your FAFSA on the federal web
site. If you did not use the IRS Data Retrieval Tool when completing or updating the FAFSA, you must provide an IRS Tax Return
Transcript. Due to changes in federal regulations, schools can no longer accept photocopies of tax returns. To request an IRS
Tax Return Transcript please visit www.irs.gov/Individuals/Get-Transcript
to download and print your transcript
immediately, or request the transcript be mailed to your address on record. Be sure to request a Tax Return Transcript, NOT an
Account Transcript. If you or your parent(s) did not and will not file a 2013 Federal tax return, please check the appropriate box
below. Please provide W-2 forms if you worked, but were not required to file a tax return.
I used the IRS Data Retrieval process when completing/updating the 2014-2015 FAFSA.
My and my spouse’s (if applicable) 2013 Federal IRS Tax Return Transcript(s) is attached.
(Foreign tax return filers may submit signed photocopies.) See Income Verification section above for important details.

I worked in 2013 but was not required to file a tax return. My 2013 W-2s are enclosed

included on your 2013 Federal tax return: Type: __________________________________________ $______________

Fill in the information below as it applies to the student AND the student’s parent(s) whose information is on the FAFSA.
DO NOT LEAVE ANY ITEM BLANK. If any item does not apply, enter “N/A” for Not Applicable where a response is requested,
or enter $0 in an area where an amount is requested.
ALL AMOUNTS ARE ANNUAL. To determine the correct annual amount for each item: If you paid or received the same dollar
amount every month in 2013, multiply that amount by the number of months in 2013 you paid or received it. If you did not pay or
receive the same amount each month in 2013, add together the amounts you paid or received each month.
If more space is needed for any item, attach a separate page with student’s name, ID # and appropriate information.
