Dear UIW Student,
You may have been a recipient of the recently mailed 1098T. Shortly thereafter, it was discovered that our system caused incomplete information on some student records. The problem has been rectified; therefore another 1098T was mailed to all UIW students that were enrolled in 2007. This 1098T is flagged as “Corrected” please use this copy for your tax records. The online option also reflects the latest update. You can see your 1098T by logging onto:

We apologize for any inconveniences we may have caused.
Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997 (1098-T)
1098-T will be available by January 31, 2008
(NEW)
- Special IRS instructions for taxpayers who want to claim the above-the-line tuition deduction. Congress belatedly reinstated the tuition and fees tax deduction in December retroactively (it had expired January 1, 2006). The IRS had already sent its paper forms to the printer before Congress acted, so there is no place on the form 1040 for the deduction. Further, IRS needs to reprogram its software (and so will the on-line and software providers) to allow for the deduction, so the key piece of advice is that no returns claiming the tuition and fee deduction should be filed until early February. More information including instructions on how to fill out paper forms, is available at: www.irs.gov/newsroom/article/0,,id=165640,00.html
