1098-T, Tuition Statement
The 1098-T, Tuition Statement form reports tuition expenses you paid for college tuition that might entitle you to an adjustment to income or a tax credit.
Student Loan Servicer
Your student loan servicer (who you make payments to) will provide a copy of your 1098-E if the interest you paid in 2019 met or exceeded $600.
Your servicer may send you your 1098-E electronically or via U.S. Postal Service.
Check with your servicer if you haven't yet received your 1098-E for 2019. Your servicer has 1098-E information on the home page of its website. Look there for quick answers to your questions.
If you are unsure who your loan servicer is, visit nslds.ed.gov or call the Federal Student Aid Information Center at 1-800-4-FED-AID (1-800-433-3243; TTY 1-800-730-8913).
- Note: If you had multiple loan servicers in 2019, you will receive a separate 1098-E from each servicer.
