Using the 1098-T Form

The 1098-T form is used by eligible educational institutions to report information about their students to the IRS as required by the Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997.  Eligible educational institutions are required to submit the student’s name, address, and taxpayer’s identification number (TIN), enrollment and academic status. Beginning in 2003, educational institutions must also report amount to the IRS pertaining to qualified tuition and related expenses, as well as scholarships and/or grants, taxable or not.  A 1098-T form must also be provided to each applicable student.  This form is informational only.  It serves to alert students that they may be eligible for federal income tax educational credits.  It should not be considered as tax opinion or advise.  While it is a good starting point, the 1098-T, as designed and regulated by the IRS, does not contain all information needed to claim a tax credit.  There is no IRS requirement that you must claim tuition and fees or an educational credit.  Claiming educational tax benefits is a voluntary decision for those who may qualify.

Who will receive a 1098-T form?
       All eligible students enrolled at MCC in 2023 in at least one course will receive a 1098-T form. Not all students who receive a 1098-T are eligible to claim a deduction or credit. The Internal Revenue Service can provide more information regarding eligibility.
