I am an international student on an f1 visa. For tax purposes, I am considered a resident as I have been studying here from 2011 (without visiting home in between). Do I file 1098T? I looked at some of the community answers and some say yes, and some say no. Any clarity on this matter would be great. It would be best if someone could provide documentation from IRS clarifying this matter.

Did you mean by Form 1040?  If you have stayed more than five years within the US, you are a resident for tax purposes.  You can then file a Form 1040 with TurboTax. 

See example 1
