Thank you so much. I worked in UC system and I found in UCSF website the following statement:
Non-Taxability of Fee Remission: Fee remission is non-taxable. Therefore, fee remission benefits are not included in gross earnings reported to the IRS. However, fee remission benefits are listed on the 1098-T form and may be treated as tax-exempt income, per IRS Publication 970.
I think the policy should be the same across UC system (I work in a different campus). So I think I will try to fix my 1098T or just drop it if I can't make the deadline.
