Household Income Form Information
The Household Income Form (HIF) is a helpful tool to collect household income data when National School Lunch Program information is not available for a student. The information you give helps your school access federal and state education dollars. This funding supports reading, math, science, arts, PE, afterschool and other vital programming. The privacy of your household financial information is protected by law. Your information collected through this electronic form will come securely to the Agency of Education's (AOE) data team who will send it again securely back to your child's school..
Filling out this form only takes a few minutes and will help your community, your school and your property taxes. (Downloadable PDFs in several different languages are available below the form).
You can access the Household Income Form here: Household Income Form
To apply, simply click on the above “Household Income Form” link, fill out the information, and click “submit."
