验证 is a process to confirm the information you provided on the Free Application for Federal Student 援助 (FAFSA).
验证 selection can be random or it can be because your FAFSA data was incomplete, 估计, 或不一致. 美国.S. Department of Education selects some students for the verification process. The Mount Union大学 may select others if conflicting information is found.
We are required to ask you to provide documentation to confirm the information on your FAFSA. 参考你的 金融援助 to review what documentation is required to complete the verification process. 表格可在 申请经济资助 页面.
If you are required to submit tax documents, you have two options:
OPTION 1 (preferred): Use the IRS Data Retrieval Tool to transfer 2021 tax data to the 2023-2024 FAFSA
- 登录时 studentaid.政府 and click on “Make FAFSA Corrections”
- On the FAFSA, in the Financial Information section, click “Link to IRS.” (Parent financial section will be first; then the student financial section will follow.)
- 在弹出的国税局页面上, fill out the form and click on “Transfer my tax information into the FAFSA.” It should take you back to the FAFSA and the tax information should be filled in.
- If both the student and parent(s) filed taxes, the linking process (above) will need to be done for both the student and the parent(s).
- Lastly you must "sign and submit" the FAFSA. (We will be notified electronically.)
- You will NOT be able to use IRS Data Retrieval Tool if:
- Marital status changed after December 31, 2021
- Filed "Married Filing Separately"
- 提交经修订的申报表
- 提交了国外纳税申报表
- Filed a tax return using a Tax ID Number (TIN)
- Applicants who have not and are not required to file a 2021 Federal Tax Return.
For applicants who cannot use the online IRS Data Retrieval Tool, a signed copy of 2021 tax returns can be submitted. 参见下面的选项2.
OPTION 2: Submit a signed copy of 2021 tax return forms
Submit signed tax returns to the 学生资助办公室 via mail (克拉克大街1972号., Alliance, OH 44601) OR fax to (330) 829-2814. Please be sure to include the student's name and student ID number. Do not send any personally identifiable information (PII) via 电子邮件 if you are not able to encrypt it. PII includes attachments with Social Security Numbers, ID Numbers, dates of birth, etc.
After your documents/forms are submitted we will scan them into our imaging software, 然后检查它们是否完成. We are required to resolve any conflicting information, so if we discover conflicts or any documentation is missing or incomplete, we will notify you via 电子邮件 for a resolution. Be sure to monitor your Mount Union 电子邮件 address.
Once all documents/forms have been submitted, please allow several weeks for processing. Students will be notified only if verification results in a change in aid.
