Your 2022 1098-T is available January 31, 2023

The IRS Form 1098-T Tuition Statement reports the payments made for qualified education expenses during the calendar year. This form, in conjunction with personal financial records, is used to assist you and your parents in calculating any educational tax credits you may be eligible for.

To help determine the tax credit you may be eligible for, please review IRS Form 8863 - Education Credits, Instructions for Form 8863, and IRS Publication 970 - Tax Benefits for Higher Education.

For more information, please visit the IRS website.

IRS FORM 1098-T TUITION STATEMENT

IRS Regulations require colleges and universities to report all payments received (up to the amount of qualified tuition and fees) in Box 1 of the 1098-T. 

  • (Box 1) Amounts paid for qualified tuition and related expenses (QTRE), includes Spring 2022, Summer 2022 and Fall 2022. 
    • Amounts reported as payments include personal payments, loans, and scholarships/grants received during the calendar year for qualified education expenses less any refunds issued due to over-payments of tuition.  Total payments reported in Box 1 cannot exceed the amount of applicable qualified education expenses.
    • Qualified education expenses include tuition and fees required for enrollment.  Other charges, including housing and meal plans are not considered qualified education expenses for 1098-T purposes.
    • The amount reported in Box 1 is NOT reduced by scholarships and grants reported in box 5.
  • (Box 5) Scholarships and Grants received during the calendar year, includes Spring 2022, Summer 2022 and Fall 2022.
