Verification of Identity

This form is used if you're unable to verify your identity in person with a One Stop counselor in order for your financial aid application to be processed.

To verify your identity, you must present a valid U.S. government-issued photo identification (e.g., a driver’s license, other state-issued ID, or passport) and sign the statement in SECTION B in the presence of a licensed Notary Public. You must drop off the completed form along with a copy of your government-issued photo ID in person or mail it to One Stop Student Services.
