RJS,
Thank you very much for your help and clarification! I apologize, I wanted to write that the amount I have in Box 1 (paid tuition) is more than the amount in Box 5 (scholarship). Just to verify, because my scholarship is smaller than my tuition, I don’t have to amend my tax return?
As I mentioned in my initial post, I was an international student last year. I still don’t understand why my school is sending me Form 1098-T based on my legal status in the United States. I did not expect this form and this is why I filed my taxes early (the school is also supposed to send any tax forms by January 31st I believe, and I don’t understand why it just arrived).
