Are You Ready for the Upcoming Tax Season?
For many schools, 1098-T reporting is a labor-intensive process. Why? Not only must schools consolidate tax data from multiple systems, but IRS requirements for 1098-T reporting change every year. That’s why you need a professional partner like Tab Service Company on your side — one who reduces your administrative load while increasing your organization’s cost efficiency.
We provide the necessary tools to meet the ever-changing IRS reporting requirements. We distribute — via hard or electronic copies — well-organized financial information to tax payers (students and parents) that they use to maximize their tax credits and deductions. And we help you get through the entire 1098-T process with ease!
Developed with the end user in mind, the ts1098t system provides a complete web-based solution for 1098-T compliance. Easy setup and administration, powerful search functions and built in e-filing are just a few of the reasons to choose our solution.
Printing and Mailing
We offer a quick, easy way to get your 1098-T forms printed and out the door every tax season. We operate a high-volume print and mail facility in Chicago, IL that services educational institutions across the country. Our production laser printing and high-speed pressure sealing technologies ensure that our print and mail services provide a dependable, easy option for delivering your 1098-T forms to students.
From your submitted tax data file, ts1098t generates a mail-run proof, which you can easily review and approve online via your browser. After approval, we print the proof using pressure seal forms that reduce costs while protecting sensitive information such as students’ SSNs.
Once printed, we mail the 1098-T forms in a timely manner. We presort your forms and take advantage of all applicable postal discounts to ensure the lowest possible costs for your institution.
