2024-2025 V5 Independent Verification Worksheet

Independent students selected for the V5 federal verification process must complete and submit this form. If the Direct Data Exchange (FA-DDX) did not transfer Federal Tax Information (FTI) when the initial FAFSA application was made, the student and/or spouse will need to contact the IRS to request the 2022 Tax Return Transcript for the 2024-2025 school year. Students and spouses may also submit a signed copy of their submitted 2022 Tax Return.

Please note that students must present a government-issued ID to either an authorized financial aid administrator or, if the student cannot appear in person, the worksheet must be notarized by a public notary.
