Send entire tax return?

<p>Hi, this may sound like a silly question, but are we to send the entire 50+ pg federal tax return packet to each college? </p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>Normally the school will tell you what it wants. (Or, if this is for IDOC, your cover letter will tell you.)</p>

<p>Generally speaking, people are usually asked to send the 1040 and any attached schedules. The same thing you submit to the IRS. That would not include any worksheets you used in calculating your taxes.</p>

<p>many schools will also want copies of your W-2 forms as well.</p>
