It is, but I'm not sure how including a 1098T generated a $1200 balance due, but removing it generated a $1800 refund. 1098T is for college tuition, which generates credits and deductions, so including it should have reduced the tax liability, and removing it should have increased it.


Yeah that's what I was thinking. To have the situation OP said, you'd have to be including income that doesn't belong to you

In a sense he was. The 1098T includes monies from grants and such. Total Grants minus the tuition left him with a large sum of cash to use for rent, books, food, etc. This money was being taxed as additional income.
