What do I do if my school doesn’t give out 1098t forms?

I went to barber school and the owner is refusing to give me the form required. He said I can use the receipts I received every time I made a payment.

To claim education credit the school has to be an eligible education institution. 


In order
to be an eligible educational institution, the school must be eligible to participate in a student aid program administered by the Department of Education.


You can check this database.

They are an eligible education institution. I found them on the website.

In Turbotax, after say no to the question did you get a 1098-T, check that you qualify for an exception.  That will allow you to enter your tuition payment amounts.
