Can You Write Off Form 1098-T Tuition Statement?
Short answer: The 1098-T itself isn't a deduction; it reports tuition you may use for the American Opportunity or Lifetime Learning Credit.
Compare it to your own payment records; scholarships reduce the qualified amount.
Records to keep: Keep receipts, statements (1098, 1098-T, 1099, W-2G), and a note of what each cost was for. Compare itemizing to the 2026 standard deduction before you claim.
