The 2017-2018 FAFSA will once again use the 2015 tax information as was required for last year’s FAFSA. Don’t be alarmed, this is intentional! You will not have to estimate income and most people completing the FAFSA will be able to use IRS Data Retrieval Tool to import tax and earnings information from the IRS database. Before You Complete Your FAFSA: Gather your 2015 Federal Tax Return, which was filed by April 17, 2016, or use the IRS Data Retrieval Tool on the FAFSA. Collect other financial information such as current bank statements and asset information. Have your U.S. Department of Education Federal Student Aid ID (FSAID) available to sign your FAFSA. Visit fsaid.ed.gov if you need an FSAID or have forgotten yours. Your
parent will also need an FSAID if you are a dependent student. If you have additional questions contact the UofL Student Financial Aid Office by phone at 502-852-5511 or by email at finaid@louisvile.edu. http://louisville.edu/financialaid
