Please note:
- If you click on the 2010 link when using the above
navigation in the 1098T section, you may see the message
below. The message is NOT referring to the
2011 1098-T form. It is referring to the
2010 1098-T form that students would have received
for attendance at Butler University from January 2010 through
December 2010. That document was mailed in January 2011.
School did not generate a 2010 1098-T form for you.
Common reasons for this to occur are a) you did not make any
payments during the 2010 year or b) we may not have your social
security number. A social security number is required to
generate a 1098-T form. If you feel that this is an error,
please contact the School Cashiers Office.
- The 1098-T information is for tax reporting purposes only and
meets Butler University's obligation for reporting per IRS
guidelines. The 1098-T information pertains to the
American Opportunity and Lifetime Learning tax credits. Our
office recommends consultation with a qualified tax advisor or the
IRS at (800) 829-1040 to determine eligibility for tax credits and
interpreting the information our office
provides. The Office of Student Accounts' staff
is not trained in tax preparation and cannot determine eligibility
for tax credits.
