VERIFICATION WORKSHEET
Your financial aid application has been selected for review in a process called verification. The law says that we must ask you to
confirm the information you reported on your FAFSA. We will compare your FAFSA with the information on this institutional
verification form and with any other required documents. If needed, we will make corrections to your FAFSA electronically. If
you have questions about verification, contact your campus One Stop as soon as possible so that your financial aid will not be
delayed. You and a parent whose information was reported on the FAFSA must complete and sign this institutional verification
document, provide required documents, and submit the form and other required documents to the Financial Aid Office.

B. Student Income Verification
Important Note: This section applies to the student only.
The best way to verify income (if you have already filed your 2017 tax return) is by using the IRS Data Retrieval
Tool (IRS DRT) which is part of FAFSA on the Web at FAFSA.gov
. In most cases, no further documentation is
needed to verify income tax return information that was transferred into your FAFSA using the IRS DRT if that
information was not changed. If you are unable to use the data retrieval, you can obtain a 2017 IRS Tax Return
Transcript at
www.IRS.gov. If you did not file a tax return, you must provide a copy of your W2s for 2017.
Check the box that applies:
I have used the IRS DRT to transfer IRS income tax return information into my FAFSA.
I have not yet used the IRS DRT, but will use the tool to transfer IRS income tax return information
into my FAFSA.
I am unable to use the IRS DRT and instead will provide a 2017 IRS Tax Return Transcript(s).
