Please note that IRS Form 1098T is for informational purposes only. 这些表格上的数据可以用来申请教育税收抵免, 但这些数字既不能保证也不能排除这些税收抵免的资格. 在这种情况下，“合格学费”是由国税局发布的指导方针确定的. 这可能反映或可能不反映由某些教育资助机构确定的“合格学费”, 比如529计划. 由于对“合格学费”的定义不同，, t在这里 may be variation among the amounts that are deemed to qualify.

每年这个时候工作中最重要的问题是:“你什么时候发送1098T表格?" and the follow up "You filled out the wrong box". Colleges and Universities are required to file the Forms 1098-T, 但是，关于他们必须包括什么的规定，并不一定与你填写的税款相吻合, especially if you or your tax program don't know how to interpret them. That form can be the information that helps claim a big tax credit; or, 经常错过, 它可能是关于奖学金的信息，必须作为收入申报. 谁要求什么，在哪里?

1098T表格是在最初的教育税收抵免通过成为法律后由美国国税局创建的, the Hope (now American Opportunity) and Lifetime Learning credits. 有 不仅仅是这两个但这就是一切的开始. 在2018年之前的年份, 各学院可以选择填写与合格学费和相关费用相关的第1栏或第2栏. Box 1 represented Payments w在这里as Box 2 was for calculated Billings. 

联邦ly mandated tax reporting now mandates colleges report in Box 1. 表格1098-T报告在日历年内支付的合格学费和相关费用, up to the amount billed for these expenses. Also included on the form is Box 5, Scholarships or 奖助金. This box is important for two reasons: it can help calculate how much is eligible for the credit; but 经常错过, it can also indicate that some of those scholarships are taxable. Let's first look at calculating the credit.

要开始了解什么有资格获得信用，第一步是从第1栏中减去第5栏. 为什么? Scholarships are generally applied to tuition. 而且，它们只是 免税 to the extent that they are applied to tuition (and related expenses). I have more on when they aren't below. So, 如果奖学金支付学费, 而你却没有用它, then you will not be eligible for the credit. Unfortunately, doing this math is not necessarily the end. 方框1为当年支付的合格学费和费用. 大学通常在11月底或12月初为春季学期或第一日历年学期开票. This allows taxpayers to do some planning, but makes it confusing. 在规划端, the bill isn't usually due until January, 所以你可以通过在12月或1月纳税来决定哪个纳税年度最合适. 问题是，你付了多少钱? 事情并不总是那么简单. For some, the information on the 1098T is all that is needed. 对其他人来说，最好的方法是从学校拿出来或者要求一份. Things to remember: all payments you made count, including payments on credit cards and student loans (see below). Unfortunately, this whole confusion sends many to a tax advisor. 如果你不确定，请一个人帮忙，至少在第一次，可能不是一个坏主意.

Some will go through the calculations above, 无论是简单的还是复杂的, 并且意识到他们有足够的奖学金和助学金来支付学费, but also some that pays for room and board. 第一个评论很好! That means you earned quite a bit of free money for school. It does also mean that some of it is taxable. 奖学金或助学金超过合格的学费和相关费用是接受者的应税收入. 接受者是学生，这至少意味着税率会很低.
You report this income in the same place you report wages. 它甚至可以在1040-EZ上完成. 在表格1040,1040A或1040- ez的第7行左侧应该写有“SCH”.

依赖1098T表格的另一个问题是，是谁支付的，而这些信息是大学不会追踪的. To qualify for the credit or deduction, 你必须已经付款，收款人必须是你的家属. Payments by check or credit/debit card are easy for you to track. 对于贷款，要看借款人. 联邦直接贷款只发放给学生，所以严格来说不是家长的付款. 如果你是贷款的共同签署人，那么你可能会把它算作一笔付款. As I stated above, scholarships are taxable to the student. This is a good thing, since students likely have a lower tax rate.

You are not required to attach IRS Form 1098-T to your tax return. 国税局1098-T表格与从雇主那里获得的国税局W-2表格不同, which is required to be attached to the tax return filed with the IRS. 国税局1098-T表格的主要目的是让您知道足彩外围已经向国税局提供了所需的信息，以帮助他们确定谁有资格申请学费和费用减免或教育学分.

在你的税务软件里, 通常你可以直接到税单上，在需要的地方找到号码, usually right-clicking the line on the form. It may require reading the help file a little. 

• 税收抵免被采取/报告 8863年形成. 学费减免已经开始了 8917年形成. To understand which is right, you can start 在这里.
• Scholarships are reported on line 7 of Form 1040, 1040A or 1040-EZ. 在税务软件中通常有一个地方是为未在W2表上申报的工资收入. This is the place to input the taxable scholarship.

So in the end, taking this benefit isn't easy. 一些重要的事情需要记住:

• 值得吗?? 绝对! 税收抵免可以减少你所付税款的100%(美国机会抵免). 即使是其他选择也会减少你所付税款的20%或更多.
• 虽然你必须为你的一些奖学金纳税，这可能很糟糕, it also means you didn't have to pay for the school. That scholarship is likely being taxed at a rate of 20%. 这意味着80%的钱是免费的! Scholarships are any funds paid to you. They can be the grant award the school provided, 佩尔助学金或SEOG, 国家财政援助, or those local rotary and foundation scholarships. 关于后者, if they were sent to the college or made co-payable, then the college is including them in Box 5 of 1098T. 如果没有，那取决于你.

这个名字, 1098-T表格上的社会安全号码和地址是从提供给Muskingum大学的信息中获得的, 虽然1098-T表上显示的地址与国税局所得税申报目的无关. 表格上最重要的两个信息是你的姓名和社会安全号码. 你的姓名和社会安全号码必须是正确的，并且与你的社会安全卡上的相符. 请致电注册办公室 419-289-5666 if either of these two pieces of information are inaccurate.
