Thanks for the reply. This is all so confusing doing this for myself.
Actually, upon looking at my paystubs, for one month, the exact amount shown on my 1098-T shows up on my pay stub for that month when tuition was due. However, it is classified as a "employee waiver non tax". No more info is said about it. Also, this employee waiver item is NOT part of my gross pay for the month.
You said that 1098-T is an info document, so credits are based on my own records. In this case, since I see the supposed credit on my pay stub, what do I do? Can I claim a credit?
