You don't need to enter the control number from a 1098-T. You need to enter the Federal Payer's ID or Employer ID from the form. It is 9 digits, formatted as XX-XXXXXXX.
I was a full-time university student in the United States working on hourly wages on Campus with W2 from University from Jan 1, 2022, until Dec 25, 2022.
Can I file my taxes with Turbo Tax?
The control number of my academic institution as provided on W2 isn't accepted by TurboTax, what should I do ?
If TurboTax doesn’t accept your control number, it just means you cannot import your W-2 info.
You can upload a digital copy of your W-2, snap a picture or type it in yourself.
To upload a W2 see How do I import or enter my W-2 in TurboTax Online?
If you are on an F-1 visa, you may have to file a nonresident return. TurboTax does not support Form 1040-NR. TurboTax partner Sprintax.com can handle your taxes.
