Graduate Student with a W2 and teaching assistantship
I have seen similar situations but not my situation exactly and really looking for help!
I am a married graduate student filing jointly with my husband. Last year I received a graduate teaching assistant stipend and tuition remission from my university. The university thus issued me a W2 for 2021 but no 1098-T. I only had a small amount of taxes withheld federally and my husband had regular taxes deducted by his employer every month. How do I report my graduate student income as married filing jointly with my husband? It seems like something is wrong when we enter it as we would for a "normal" job because our estimated taxes due from Turbotax do not seem reasonable.
Additionally (for bonus points! 😄 ), for 2022 I will have both a teaching assistant stipend AND an NIH NRSA F31 Fellowship stipend. I am even more unsure how I will be reporting that income, as YTD the university has not withheld any federal tax and I don't know how to enter this into the IRS estimator tool (https://apps.irs.gov/app/tax-withholding-estimator/) to try and amend our withholding.
