The 1098-T Tuition Statement forms for the current tax year are mailed to students no later than January 31 with qualifying tuition charges for tax credits. 1098-Ts are IRS informational forms issued to the student and mailed to the home address that the student has listed in MyMadison.

Some general information about the 1098-T form:

1. JMU sends 1098-T forms showing eligible tuition payments as well as any free money (grants, scholarships, etc) the student received during the tax year.
2. Room and Board charges are not part of “qualified tuition” as defined by the IRS. 
3. If you did not have qualifying tuition, then a 1098-T form was not processed.

If you do not have your 1098-T form, you can log in to your M3 account and view your 1098-T there. If you have questions about the amounts reported on your 1098-T for the current tax year, please contact the UBO at 540-568-6505 or email us at ubo@jmu.edu.  

Additional information about the 1098-T form is available on the IRS website. 

Please visit the IRS Tax Benefits for Education page for more information on the how the 1098-T can be used.

Timing: Forms are mailed and posted to M3 no later than January 31st of each year.

Current Students: Log in to Madison Money Manger (M3) and click on "Tax Forms" on the left side to access all past 1098-T forms. Authorized Users with access can log in on M3 as well to access forms. 

Former Students: If you no longer have access to your MyMadison account to access M3, you have two options to request your old 1098-T forms:

   • Student ID Number
   • Student Name
   • Last 4 digits of student's Social Security Number
   • Student's date of birth
   • What year(s) of the 1098-T form you would like sent and how you would like it sent (email, mail, etc.)
