Last year my refund went towards my student loans, do I get to use that amount as a deduction somewhere on my taxes this year?

If you paid interest, you should get a 1098-E from the lender. Otherwise no, there is no tax benefit for paying off your debts, either in cash or via refund offset.

I was a student teacher and received a stipend with no taxes deducted. I got a 1099-NEC from the school, and TurboTax requested I file a SS-8 with IRS. Is that necessary?
