What if my two-year-old tax returns are not representative of my family’s current finances? What if our financial situation has changed?

If your financial situation has significantly changed since the reported tax year, you can submit an “appeal letter” to your college, asking them to consider your more recent (current) financial situation instead of your situation from two years ago.

Use the Going Merry Appeal Letter Generator to get started.

We'll give you tips and help you create your customized letter.
