PLEASE NOTE– Vermont State Colleges must have your correct identifying number to file Form 1098T, Tuition Statement, with the IRS and to furnish a statement to you. This will be your Social Security number (SSN) or, if you are not eligible to obtain an SSN, your individual taxpayer identification number (ITIN). Form 1098T contains information about qualified tuition and related expenses to help determine whether you, or the person who can claim you as a dependent, may take either the tuition and fees deduction or claim an education credit to reduce Federal income tax. For more information, see IRS Pub. 970, Tax Benefits for Higher Education.  To add, update or correct your SSN or ITIN number, please use the form W9s and mail, fax or drop off at your college.

Understanding your 1098T

  • Room and meals are not considered qualified tuition costs.  Included are tuition, student activity fee, facility fees and some course fees. Therefore, you will not find room & meal charges reflected on your 1098T’s.
  • If box 1 and 5 are the same amount, a 1098T is not issued because there is no tax benefit or tax implications.
  • The following will help you understand how box 1, 4, 5 and 6 on the 1098T is calculated for 2022 tax year.  All net credits incurred in 2022 for prior individual years will go in only box 4 of the 2022 1098T form and no negative values in any 1098T boxes whatsoever.  Excerpts below are taken directly from the IRS website*:

 

The VSC uses the Box 1 method** for reporting to the IRS.

Box 1. Payments Received for Qualified Tuition and Related Expenses**

Enter the total amount of payments received for qualified tuition and related expenses from all sources during the calendar year. The amount reported is the total amount of payments received less any reimbursements or refunds made during the calendar year that relate to the payments received for qualified tuition and related expenses during the same calendar year. The amount reported is not reduced by scholarships and grants reported in box 5. Include in this box the receipt of a payment of past-due qualified tuition or related expenses from a previous calendar year, but only if the educational institution previously billed the student for such amount(s).

Box 4. Adjustments Made for a Prior Year

  • Payments received. Enter reimbursements or refunds of qualified tuition and related expenses made in 2022 that relate to payments received that were reported for any prior year after 2002.
  • Amounts billed. Enter any reductions in charges made for qualified tuition and related expenses made during the calendar year that relate to amounts billed that were reported for any prior year after 2002.

Box 5. Scholarships or Grants

  • Grant or scholarship administered in 2022 for any current and future terms

Box 6.  Adjustments to Scholarships or Grants for a Prior Year

  • Reduction in the current tax year for grant or scholarship administered in prior years

Please consult your tax advisor with specific questions on how you use the 1098T or the implications of your tax refund; we are unable to answer tax-related questions.
