The Office of Financial Aid has asked me for an IRS Tax Return Transcript. What is this and why do I have to provide it?
Selected U-M students and families have been asked to submit an IRS Tax Return Transcript for their financial aid application. This is part of the application verification process for federal student aid. This request will be listed on Wolverine Access where there is a link to instructions for requesting this transcript from the IRS. You may also visit the IRS website to get your tax record. Please note that an IRS Tax Account Transcript is not the same document and will not meet this requirement. All requested supplemental documents must be received by the Office of Financial Aid within 15 days of the request.
