I was on fellowship for part of the year but I don't have a W-2 form, and I'm not a PhD candidate, but in the program. How do I get to the correct form to report?

Additionally, my tuition is paid as part of my graduate student package. Do I report this/how? Is this value included in my household yearly income?

The tuition reduction is not reported and is not income. 

A fellowship is usually reported on a 1099-MISC. 

All income must be reported, and if you received income, but no income statement, you can report that income under "Other Income".

Get to All Income and scroll down to Less Common Income and click Show more

Scroll down to Miscellaneous Income, 1099-A, 1099-C and click Start

Scroll down to Other reportable income and click Start

Type   fellowship   into the description box and enter the amount
