I obtained it online from my community college account. Box 1 = $2,000, Box 5 = $3,000, Box 8 is checked. I am 19yo, single and work full time, and I am required to file and cannot be claimed as a dependent by anyone else. The difference between boxes 1 and 5 was pocketed, although I did have to spend $200 of it on scrubs, a CPR class &amp; book (both at a local hospital), which was required but not offered at the CC. All other course requirements, such as tuition &amp; course books, were included in box 1. The amount in box 5 includes a state grant and pell grant, following my FAFSA submission. Am I really allowed to pocket the additional $ and not report? Do I simply ignore the 'higher education' subject? Thanks in advance for your help and advice!<BR /></P> <P></P><BR /> Sat, 01 Jun 2019 20:56:24 GMT iwillgetthruit 2019-06-01T20:56:24Z https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/taxes/discussion/should-i-report-my-1098-t-it-states-this-will-not-be-sent-to-you-or-to-the-irs-as-the-amounts-do-not/01/255792#M107610 <P> </P><P>A hard copy <U>was not</U> mailed to me.
