Now a good friend of mine
Sat with me and he cried
He told me a story
I know he ain't lying
Said he went for a job
And Mr. Man said
Without an education
You might as well be dead
Sat with me and he cried
He told me a story

Automated IRS System Helps College-Bound Students with Financial Aid Application Process
Here are some tips on using the IRS Data Retrieval Tool:
- Benefits The IRS Data Retrieval tool is an easy and secure way to access and transfer tax return information directly onto the FAFSA form, saving time and improving accuracy. Also, the increased accuracy reduces the likelihood of being selected for verification by the school’s financial aid office.
- Eligibility Criteria Taxpayers who wish to use the tool to complete their 2012 FAFSA form must:
- have filed a 2011 tax return;
- possess a valid Social Security Number;
- have a Federal Student Aid PIN (individuals who don’t have a PIN, will be given the option to apply for one through the FAFSA application process);
- have not changed marital status since Dec. 31, 2011.
- Exceptions If any of the following conditions apply to the student or parents, the IRS Data Retrieval Tool can not be used for the 2012 FAFSA application:
- an amended tax return was filed for 2011;
- no federal tax return for 2011 has been filed ;
- the federal tax filing status on the 2011 return is married filing separately; a Puerto Rican or other foreign tax return has been filed.
- Alternatives If the IRS Data Retrieval Tool can not be used and if the college requests verification documentation, it may be necessary to obtain an official transcript from the IRS. To order tax return or tax account transcripts, visit www.irs.gov and select Order a Transcript or call the Transcript toll-free line at 1-800-908-9946.
