It depends on your status.  If you are a Non Resident Alien, then you would need to use Sprintax.com to file a 1040NR.  You are considered a nonresident if you do not meet the Green Card Test or Substantial Presence Test

 

If you are a resident alien, eligible to file the regular 1040, then you would take the following steps to enter your 1098-T:

  • Federal
  • Deductions and Credits
  • Show More next to Education
  • Start next to Expenses and Scholarships
