B. Income Verification:
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 tool, you can obtain a 2017 IRS Tax Return
Transcript by going to
www.IRS.gov. If you did not file a tax return, you must provide a confirmation of non-filing
which can be obtained from the IRS using Form 4506-T and checking box 7.
Check the box that applies to you:
