I originally paid for my daughter's college tuition & books in 2017 as she did not qualify for financial aid with mine and my husbands combined income. My husband and I are separated so we filed a waiver with the college and she is now approved to receive financial aid (Pell, BOGG & Cal Grant) based on my income alone. We have requested a refund from the school for fees already paid but were told it would take approximately 6 weeks to receive. We received a 1098 T for tax purposes. My question is this, will I get an amended 1098 T from the school in order to file my 2017 taxes, do I use the 1098 T that I already have to file taxes and if so, will the school then send out a new form in 2018 with the corrections? Or do I not claim her school expenses at all since they will be reimbursed??
