BEFORE YOU BEGIN: Gather Your Documents
To apply, you'll need to submit documents to verify your income. We recommend having them ready beforehand for the smoothest experience. You'll only be required to upload documents that apply to you- if a category doesn't apply, you can simply leave it blank.
Here's what you'll need:
1. Tax Documents. Most recent federal 1040 or statement of non-filing. W-2s not accepted.
2. Pay Stubs. Last 2 pay stubs or letter from employer stating hours worked and pay.
3. Social Security Benefits. Letter from the social security office or Notice of Decision stating your monthly benefit amount.
4. Unemployment or Disability. Notification of eligible benefits from unemployment/disability office.
5. Child Support/Alimony. Child support order or screenshot of deposit.
6. Government Assistance. (SNAP, housing assistance, etc.) Letter of explanation of your benefits. If you do not have this, it can be found at access.wisconsin.gov.
7. Proof of Other Income. If you have other additional income, please provide supporting documentation. This can be an invoice, bank statement, screenshot of deposit, etc.
