1098T Forms are mailed to students in January of each year.

What is a 1098T Form?
Section 6050S of the Internal Revenue Code requires eligible educational institutions to file information returns to assist taxpayers in determining the amount of qualified tuition and related expenses for which an educational tax credit is allowable. This information is provided on the 1098T Form.

What is Â鶹´«Ã½ÉçÇø's Federal Tax ID Number?
Â鶹´«Ã½ÉçÇø's Federal Tax ID Number is 14-6009464.

Why did I receive a 1098T Form?
If you received a 1098T form it means that you had charges on your account for at least one course at Â鶹´«Ã½ÉçÇø during the calendar year. It does not mean that you are eligible for a tuition and fees deduction, American Opportunity Credit, or Lifetime Learning Tax Credit. According to federal tax regulations, determination of qualified charges and payments is the responsibility of the tax payer.

What information is provided on the 1098T Form?
Payments made out of pocket made during a calendar year will be reported on the 1098T as long as charges were also incurred during that calendar year. Typically, Spring semester charges are incurred prior to the end of the year which tends to cause some confusion for students. For example, if you schedule courses in November 2022 for the Spring semester that begins in January 2023, those charges will factor into your 2022 1098T calculation for the year prior to when the courses are taking place. If payment is made for these charges after January 1, 2023 the payment would not be reflected on a 1098T until 2023.
NOTE: This example applies to the majority of students.

Where can I obtain information on the educational tax credits?
For information about the tuition and fees deduction, the American Opportunity Credit, and Lifetime Learning Tax Credit, refer to: .

You may wish to consult a tax advisor for help in calculating the amount of your credit. Employees of Â鶹´«Ã½ÉçÇø cannot answer questions regarding eligibility for the credits.
