Form 1098-E (keep for your records) www.irs.gov/Form1098E
Instructions for Borrower

A person (including a financial institution, a governmental unit, 

and an educational institution) that receives interest payments 

of $600 or more during the year on one or more qualified 

student loans must furnish this statement to you.

You may be able to deduct student loan interest that you 

actually paid in 2019 on your income tax return. However, you 

may not be able to deduct the full amount of interest reported 

on this statement. Do not contact the recipient/lender for 

explanations of the requirements for (and how to figure) any 

allowable deduction for the interest paid. Instead, for more 

information, see Pub. 970, and the Student Loan Interest 

Deduction Worksheet in your Form 1040 instructions.

Borrower’s taxpayer identification number (TIN). For your 

protection, this form may show only the last four digits of your 

TIN (social security number (SSN), individual taxpayer 

identification number (ITIN), adoption taxpayer identification 

number (ATIN), or employer identification number (EIN)). 

However, the issuer has reported your complete TIN to the 

IRS.

Account number. May show an account or other unique 

number the lender assigned to distinguish your account.

Box 1. Shows the interest received by the lender during the 

year on one or more student loans made to you. For loans 

made on or after September 1, 2004, box 1 must include loan 

origination fees and capitalized interest received in 2019. If 

your loan was made before September 1, 2004, you may be 

able to deduct loan origination fees and capitalized interest 

not reported in box 1.

Box 2. If checked, indicates that loan origination fees and/or 

capitalized interest are not included in box 1 for loans made 

before September 1, 2004. See Pub. 970 for how to figure any 

deductible loan origination fees or capitalized interest.

developments related to Form 1098-E and its instructions,
