I have a similar situation, I paid my tuition in 2018 for 2019 Jan start, got 1098 for 2018 with Box 8 unchecked and Box 7 checked with amount in Box 1. I wasn't enrolled in 2018. I am starting school in 2019. What should I do in this situation? If I don't mark yes to at least half-time student, I don't get any credit and I don't think 2019 1098T will reflect the tuition I paid in 2018.
