Federal regulation allows those eligible to receive

IRS form 1098-T the option to receive the form in an electronic format instead of through the mail. As a result, Lynn University students may elect to view and print their IRS form 1098-T though Workday self services rather than wait for it to come by mail.  When you give consent, you may view the form as soon as it is available each January.  The information on the 1098T is only informational.  You must rely on your receipts to determine the amount paid out-of-pocket for the tax credit.

Students that do not give consent will have IRS form 1098-T mailed to the permanent address in the system.

By signing your consent to receive your 1098T form electronically, you are electing not to receive a paper form in the mail.  When your 1098T form is ready, you will receive a notification with instructions how to access the form in Workday.
