1098-T

The 1098-T is an informational statement letting you know what information has been sent to the IRS. A 1098-T is available to each student who was billed for or received a refund for college-credit classes held in the previous year. MSJC is required by the IRS to issue 1098-Ts.

It is up to each taxpayer to determine eligibility for the credits and how to calculate them. MSJC cannot advise you on how to claim the credit.
