The Latest Tax Credit Update – Dec 5 and 6

Tuesday, December 5

Parents-we are continuing to work through Merit and the Oklahoma Tax Commission for the EVF’s. They asked that we encourage all parents to whitelist the following email addresses:

help@merits.com and info@merits.com

Your form will come from one of these. Please also check spam and junk mail.


K-12 Families: You may be receiving an email from MERIT on the Tax Credit. This email has tuition and fees inaccuracies from an older submission. The updated and correct submission was submitted this morning, however, MERIT did not use this one for the EVFs, as they were instructed to. We are in consultation with them and hope to have this rectified soon. Thank you so much for your patience during this time.


OK PCTC Application Window starts Wednesday, December 6 @ 2pm

Dear Immanuel Parents,

By now, all of our parents should have received their child/ren’s Enrollment Verification Form. This took place around 3 pm for the Academy and a little earlier for the Preschool. This afternoon, Mrs. Berwaldt and Mr. Rogers reviewed parent feedback from their EVFs and are making adjustments. When adjustments/edits are made, you will receive a new EVF via email. You will use this attachment to upload into the application portal. If you have multiple children receiving the Tax Credit, you can upload all student EVFs in one complete application. 

Here is what you will need: Enrollment Verification Form (EVF)–1 per child information from your 2022 1040 Tax ReturnTaxpayer ID info for all Household members, including name, address, phone number, email, and SS numbersStudent information, including name and SS numberThe State has put together an informative video on the application process. I encourage you to view it HERE
