Am I eligible?

Paying for College

<p>If I'm not required to file taxes for 2011, am I still eligible to receive financial aid?</p>

<p>Your school will probably ask for proof that you were not required to file taxes in 2011. You will have to submit a verification of non filing to your school.</p>

<p>I found that it is easier for you if </p>

<p>1) You file your taxes, even though you’re not require to file.</p>

<p>2) You do the IRS Data Retrieval in FAFSA.</p>

<p>3) Your financial aid will process faster at your school because no manual verification of incomes.</p>
