 Federal Student Aid and the IRS have collaborated to develop a solution that simplifies FAFSA completion.  The IRS Data Retrieval Tool will allow FAFSA applicants to request and retrieve their income and tax data from the IRS.  Once the data is retrieved from the IRS, it can be transferred to the FAFSA.

Students and Parents may use the IRS Data Retrieval Tool if they did not:  file as Married Filing Separately  file as Head of Household  file an amended return  file a Puerto Rican or foreign tax return Student and Parent must link to the IRS separately. If taxes were recently filed electronically within the past 2 week or by mail within the last 8 weeks, the tax information my not be available yet from the IRS.
