Interim IBR Alternative Documentation of Income 
Updated: 06/30/2009
The Team FFEL IBR Workgroup is making the attached interim Income-Based Repayment Plan Alternative Documentation of Income Form available for industry use for the new Income-Based Repayment plan available to borrowers on 07/01/2009. This is not the official OMB-approved Department of Education form, but instead is a revision of the draft form submitted to the Department in March that has been updated, including preliminary comments made by the Department. We would like to point out a few items regarding the use of the form:
- The use of this form is optional; it is provided to assist FFEL lenders and servicers if needed until there is an OMB-approved Department of Education form.
- The form may be used as is, or you may want to modify it to accommodate your processes.
- Section 2 contains information about the IRS being unable to provide verification of AGI as some will continue to use IRS Form 4506-T for obtaining the borrower's AGI.
