Question: My daughter received a 1099-Misc from her college for a $3,000 education grant to study a foreign language.?


( Back )

Answer #1:

Don't pay the taxes and it should just go away

Answer #2:

It's not a grant. It's taxable income--and taxable for SE tax purposes too ($424).

What she spent the money on does not change this.

However, now that the money is after-tax, the tuition can be used with the education deduction/credit.

Answer #3:

Have the college issue a corrected form.
