The U.S. Department of Education specifies that TRIO SSS programs must collect taxable income from applicants (from the previous year) at the time of application to determine eligibility. Whose taxable income is required depends on whether an applicant is considered dependent or independent by financial aid standards.
An independent student meets one or more of the criteria below and can provide personal taxable income information for program eligibility purposes.
A dependent student is a student who does not meet any of the criteria for an independent student and must provide parent taxable income information for program eligibility purposes.
