The Form 1098-T 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, taxpayer's identification number (TIN), enrollment status, amounts paid pertaining to qualified tuition and related expenses billed within the year, and scholarships and/or grants, taxable or not. A 1098-T form must be provided to each applicable student. Weatherford College reports 1098-T information to IRS.

In January of each year, the IRS Form 1098-T is made available to you if you've paid qualified tuition and other related educational expenses during the previous calendar year. The amount paid will be limited based on the amount of qualified tuition and other related expenses billed within the same year. For more information regarding qualified tuition, please refer to your tax professional or the IRS webpage.
