FAQs for Student Tax Information

  • Federal Regulations require students to provide their SSN or TIN for federal reporting. The requirement applies to any student regardless of whether or not the student will seek the American opportunity tax credit or Lifetime Learning Credit.

    It is the student’s responsibility to ensure your information is accurate by December 31.

    Pursuant to privacy laws and regulations, the U.S. Tax Identification Number is only used for reporting purposes as required and will not be used as an identifier in any Saint Joseph’s University student records system.

  • If we are sending you a letter via email or USPS, we do not have your SSN on file.

    If we do not have your Social Security Number on file, we are required by the IRS to solicit the information from the student.

    If we do not have your social security or we have incorrect information, this could result in fines imposed to the student by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), regardless of whether the student is intending to seek the tax credit.
