Food Program Proof of Income for Tier 1 - is this a normal request?

Ok I did get a hold of her and she made a mistake and needs line 31 on the tax form schedule C which says $102. Which is Depreciation of your home from line 41 below. Why would she need this?

Line 31 on Schedule C is your Net Profit or Loss: http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f1040sc.pdf

Yeah, you only can claim your own children if your household meets the income guidelines. I have three children, and the extra reimbursement money really helps.
I just give mine a copy of my schedule C and then my husband's recent paystubs.

Could she be asking me for this info. so I can claim my daughter?

Did you ask her why she needs it?

I'm tier I now because of some census information thay came out my neighborhood as lower income - I have no came up with that - because my immediate neighborhood is very much higher come (lawyers, doctors, engineers, etc) But another provider who lives a mile away from me and in a more lower income area was told she didn't qualify for tier I based on her area. :confused:

In any event I had thought the only time they need the providers info is when they are claiming their own kids. I try to be careful about who gets what information, too many stories about people stealing information to get credit, etc.
