Receive Your 1098-T electronically:

This year we will begin a program that allows students to receive their 1098-T forms electronically. We are encouraging you to assist us in going paperless by enrolling in electronic delivery of your 1098-T form.

In order to deliver your 1098-T form via electronic mail, we need your permission. Signing up is easy and secure.

If you would like to receive your 1098-T form electronically, simply log on to the NYU eSuite and follow the steps listed below:

  1. Students log onto NYU eSuite via the "ALBERT STUDENT CENTER"
  2. Once in the Albert Student Center, click the "VIEW BURSAR ACCOUNT" link, located under the Finances menu. This will link the student to the secure eSuite website.
  3. Once in eSuite, click the "MY ACCOUNT" tab
  4. Click the "MY PROFILES" tab
  5. Click the "PAPERLESS OPTIONS" link
  6. Click the "ACCEPT CONSENT" button

*Please note that by clicking on the accept consent button, you will only receive the 1098-T form electronically and a paper form will not be mailed to you. If you would like to receive a paper 1098-T form, please click the "I DO NOT CONSENT" button. You have the option of either receiving a paper 1098-T form or viewing/printing the 1098-T form electronically on the NYU eSuite. You may change your option at any time, by visiting the "MY PROFILE" section in eSuite.

*Please Note: *You will need Adobe Acrobat Reader 8.0 or higher to view the PDF document. Your 1098-T will pop up in a new window. If you are using Google Chrome as your Browser to view the 1098-T, the Adobe Reader needs to be installed and enabled in Chrome. The 1098-T cannot be viewed using the Chrome PDF viewer.
