What to Bring
To ensure a smooth experience, participants should come prepared with the following information:
– Your date of birth, Social Security number, address, and email;
– Your parents’ Social Security numbers if you are a dependent student;
– Your driver’s license number (if applicable);
– Alien Registration number (if you’re not a U.S. citizen);
– 2023 tax returns for yourself, your spouse (if married), or your parents (if a dependent student);
– Records of child support received (if applicable);
– Current balances of cash, savings, checking accounts, and
– Net worth of investments, businesses, and farms.
As part of the new FAFSA process, you must also provide consent to import your federal tax information directly from the IRS. Make sure your family’s 2023 taxes are completed beforehand.
As a bonus, if 1,000 currently enrolled students complete the FAFSA by April 15, 2025 (the TN Promise deadline), ten students will be randomly selected to receive a $100 award!
We encourage everyone to take advantage of these workshops. Let us help you make your college education a reality!
