1098-E form received even though work pays loan. Do I still file ?

My work pays a monthly amount to my student loans automatically. The loan provider sent me a 1098-E form. From my understanding, I don’t file this form and kind of just hang onto it since technically I’m not paying the loan and the for not paying interest. Can anyone provide any information on this ? Thank you.

No. You do not claim the student loan interest deduction as you did not repay the loan.

Please read this IRS document for more information.
