What is a 1098-T Form?

The 1098-T form is an annual informational document that all educational institutions are required to prepare for eligible students. It contains information on qualified tuition and related expenses within the calendar year, January-December. Students are not required to use the 1098-T form but can use the information provided when completing their tax returns. While Framingham State University cannot advise on how you should use the form, your tax professional can.

You can find your 1098-T on your myFramingham account, under theFinancessection, underTax Notification.  Once you click onTax Notification, select the tax year and you will be able to view or print the document.

What am I supposed to do with the Form 1098‐T?

However, we can inform you that you are not required to attach IRS Form 1098‐T to your tax return, but it would be wise to keep it for your records.

Why did I not receive a 1098-T?

The IRS does not require us to generate a 1098-T for the following:

• Students enrolled in non-degree programs
• Students who did not have qualified tuition and related expenses
• Students whose qualified tuition and related expenses are entirely waived or paid entirely with scholarships

An example of a student that would not be eligible for a 1098-T would be a student taking Professional Development courses.

What should I do if my 1098-T tax form does not match my personal information?

This was obtained from information provided to Framingham State University. Please contact the University Registrar's Office at registrarsoffice@framingham.edu if any changes need to be made.

As an international student, will I receive a 1098-T?

A 1098-T was created for all students that have qualified tuition, related expenses and payments and received a SSN/TIN validation communication in the Fall 2021.   International students that are filing Federal Income Tax that do not have a SSN/TIN on file will need to complete a Taxpayer Identification Number Request Form and submit to the Registrar's office by February 20, 2022 and notify student accounts studentaccounts@framingham.edu by February 20, 2022 as well, so your 1098-T can be updated.
