1098T - Fees paid in Jan/Feb 2016 for Spring 2016. The amount is shown in 2015 1098T. May i get the tax benefit in 2016 without 1098T, as college not providing it.
Hi
I attended the college during Fall 2015/Spring 2016. We received the 1098T of 2015 that reflects the amount for both Fall 2015 and Spring 2016. I paid the amount for Spring 2016 during Jan/Feb 2016. For 2016 we didn't received any 1098t from the college, when we inquired about it , college said all amounts are reflected in previous 1098T and there is nothing to be shared by them.
Having said that since I paid the fee for Spring 2016 in jan/feb 2016 may I choose for getting the Tax Credit? I don't have any documents apart from Credit Statement from my bank stating that i paid the amount in Jan/Feb is that suffice? Please advice.
I was told i shouldn't apply for the tax credit as is already shown in previous years 1098T. But in turbo tax i could see the option. I don't want to put myself in trouble. Appreciate your inputs and suggestions here.
