Current Students ... 1098 Tax Form Information

1098-T tax reporting information for 2009 will be available on-line by January 31, 2010 for students whose qualified tuition and related expenses were incurred in 2009. Updates will be sent to your CSCC student e-mail the first week of January 2010 to sign-up for this on-line service.

CSCC furnishes this statement to you in compliance with IRS regulations. You, or the person who can claim you as a dependent, may be able to claim an education credit on Form 1040 or 1040A for the qualified tuition and related expenses that were actually paid in 2009.

Columbus State Community College provides students with the opportunity to receive the 2010 Form 1098-T electronically. We have contracted with a specialized provider, Tab Service Company, for this service.  

IRS regulations state that each student who wishes to receive their 1098-T electronically must also provide his/her consent electronically. Therefore, if you wish to take advantage of this, you must visit https://www.tsc1099.com/login1098.aspx to sign up. The instructions are outlined below:

• Go to https://www.tsc1099.com/login1098.aspx (Copy and Paste only)  

• Enter the Site ID: 10409                     

• User Name: Your 7-digit Cougar ID Number - (Include zero if your Cougar ID begins with zero)  

• Password: Last 4 digits of your SSN  

• For security reasons, you will then be prompted to change your password. Enter your old password (last four digits of your SSN) and then enter a new password of your choosing. The new password must be 7 characters and contain at least one digit.

Once you have entered your new password, you will be presented with the Online Consent Form. Read the Online Consent Form for the requirements and specifications. If you agree, click on "Consent". Once you consent, you will not be mailed a 1098-T. You can return to the site (https://www.tsc1099.com/login1098.aspx) on January 31, 2010 to view/print a copy of your 2009 Form 1098-T.
