Question

How do I get a copy of my 1098-T or other tax documents?

Environment

• Student Financial Services: 616-234-4020

Information

The 1098-T form is used by eligible educational institutions to report information about U.S. resident status to the IRS as required by the Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997. As an eligible educational institution, GRCC reports enrollment and identifying information for U.S. resident students for whom GRCC has received payments of "qualified education expenses." The 1098-T form includes qualified charges paid and gift aid received for the corresponding tax year.

Answer

First, ensure you are looking for the correct document:

• 1098-T: Educational expenses tax form.
• W-2 Wage and Tax Statement: Income tax form for student employees.
