I have a full scholarship. I did not receive a 1098-T from the school. Do I need to list the scholarship?

Q. I have a full scholarship. I did not receive a 1098-T from the school. Do I need to report the scholarship?

A. Yes, probably. Particularly, if it covered room & board, as most "full scholarships" do.

But it is unusual that you did not get a 1098-T, in that situation. You should ask why. Many schools no longer mail out the 1098-T. You obtain it from your school account, on line.

See this post on the five main points on the 1098-T, particularly #5.
