It provides the total dollar amount paid by the student for what is referred to as qualified tuition and related expenses (or “QTRE”) in a single tax year.  \nQ: When will I receive my Form 1098-T?  \nA: Your Form 1098-T will be available to you electronically on or before January through the Student Administration System: Viewing and Printing Your 1098-T Tax Form.  \nQ: Why don’t the numbers on Form 1098-T equal the amounts I paid to UConn during the year?  \nA: There are potentially many reasons for this discrepancy. First, the amount in Box 1 only represents amounts paid for qualified tuition and related expenses (QTRE) and does not include payments made for room and board, insurance, health service fees, or parking which, though important, are not considered mandatory education expenses for tax purposes. Secondly, Form 1098-T reports amounts that the student paid in a certain year, and the pay date does not necessarily correspond to the dates that the classes were attended. For example, tuition for the Spring semester is typically billed in the prior year so a student may have paid tuition for the Spring semester in November even though classes don’t start until January. The best and most accurate source of information about the amounts that you paid for qualified tuition and related expenses will be your Fee Bills.  \nQ: Does the 1098-T include charges for books?  \nA: No, the University does not include amounts paid for books in Form 1098-T. You should consult with your tax advisor to determine if payments for books, equipment or fees should be considered when preparing your income tax returns and determining eligibility for education tax credits or deductions.  \nQ: What semesters are included in my Form 1098-T?  \nA: Typically, charges are posted to your student account in November for the Spring semester and in June for the Fall semester. Box 1 of Form 1098-T reflects payments made during the calendar year for qualified tuition and related expenses and it is not based on when the classes were attended or billed to the student account. Your Term Fee Bills will show the dates payments were posted to your account and are a valuable resource for determining the semesters that are included in your Form 1098-T. You can access your Term Fee Bills in the Bursar Services Tile in the Student Administration System.  \nQ: I am a graduate student and I received fellowship payments. Where is my fellowship reported on my Form 1098-T?  \nA: For Form 1098-T purposes, fellowships are considered financial aid and will be reported in Box 5 as a (scholarships, grants, fellowships) . Form 1098-T reports activity occurring in the calendar year. Therefore, if the total aid you received during the calendar year (reportable in Box 5) exceeds the qualified tuition and related expenses (QTRE) paid during the same calendar year, you will not receive a Form 1098-T.  \nQ: I am a graduate fellow who is entitled to receive health or dental insurance at a reduced rate. How is this reported on my Form 1098-T?  \nA: Since insurance (both medical and dental) is not considered to be a qualified tuition and related expense, this expense it is not reported on your Form 1098-T. However, if the University subsidizes the cost of your insurance then the University subsidy is reported in Box 5 of the Form 1098-T.  \nQ: I graduated in May; do I have a Form 1098-T?  \nA: Some May graduates will not be issued a Form 1098-T because there is a possibility that payments for QTRE for Spring were made on or before December 31 of the preceding calendar year. If a student paid for the Spring semester and any other outstanding QTRE charges in the preceding calendar year, then the student would not receive a Form 1098-T.  \nQ: How do I prepare my tax returns without a Form 1098-T?  \nA: Form 1098-T reports payments","cbCaifUmeNMXtt96","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaifUmeNMXtt96","pdf",127446,"English","# What is the IRS Form 1098-T?\n## When will I receive my Form 1098-T?\n## Why don’t the numbers equal my payments?\n## Does the 1098-T include books?\n## What semesters are included?\n# Graduate fellowship and insurance reporting\n## Where is fellowship reported?\n## How is health or dental insurance reported?\n# Graduates and missing forms\n## I graduated in May; do I have a Form 1098-T?\n## How do I prepare my tax returns without a Form 1098-T?\n# Requirements and corrections\n## Does the university have to provide a 1098-T?\n## My SSN is wrong; can I get a new one?","[{\"question\":\"What is the IRS Form 1098-T used for?\",\"answer\":\"Form 1098-T is a statement colleges and universities issue to certain students.
