Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
No. We handle the IRS IRIS filing process using our established IRIS A2A transmission system. You do not need to obtain a TCC, complete IRIS enrollment, or configure IRS accounts yourself.
Colleges, universities and other eligible educational institutions file Form 1098-T for each enrolled student they received qualified tuition and related expenses for. Insurers that reimburse or refund qualified tuition also file it. See the IRS instructions for Forms 1098-E and 1098-T for the full rules and exceptions.
Students must get their copy by January 31. If you e-file, the IRS copy is due by March 31. When a date falls on a weekend or holiday, it moves to the next business day. Send us your data early so there is time to review it before filing.
Yes. We handle original filings of any size, plus corrections and prior years. Corrections and prior years are quoted separately, so just ask.
You upload your 1098-T data to our secure client portal. The portal checks it as you upload, so you can fix any issues right away. You then approve a PDF of the forms, and we e-file them through IRIS.
Yes. After you approve the PDFs, we can print and mail student copies for you as an add-on, so you don’t have to handle printing, envelopes or postage.
1099FIRE used to sell 1098-T software for the IRS FIRE system, where you created a file and uploaded it to the IRS yourself. IRIS has no upload screen for that. Filings go through a secure A2A connection, which can’t be packaged as downloadable software.
So we now offer a 1098-T e-filing service instead. Upload your file to our secure portal, approve the PDF copies, and we file it through IRIS.
