Every year, NMSU prepares and sends to applicable students a Tax Form 1098-T Tuition Statement to assist them in determining eligibility for educational tax credits. It is a tax statement that provides a student with the amount of payments made toward Qualified Tuition and Related Expenses (QTRE) on their student account during the tax (calendar) year. The 1098-T form is an informational document and does not need to be attached to your tax return. While a Form 1098-T may be issued, a student's personal financial records serve as official supporting documentation for a federal tax return. There is no IRS requirement that you claim a tuition and fees deduction or an education credit.
