The school hasnt said if the housing is taxable, but they didnt charge her for housing. I made a note of how much housing cost for regular summer students in case we have to report it.
Did she get a W-2? I would kind of expect the housing to be included if the university had determined it was taxable? Or, if she filled out a W-9 and expects to get a 1099-MISC, the school should know if they plan to include housing.
Either way, if you don't get any paperwork on it, I feel safe to ignore the issue.
@Hal_Al can you confirm that the housing associated with an undergrad research experience is non-taxable? I think it should be but don't know where to look for confirmation.
