Tax season can be confusing, especially if you’re paying for school or training. While CSS doesn’t provide tax advice or IRS Form 1098?T, you can still prepare the right documents for your tax preparer. This guide shows you what to collect, how to organize it, and what questions to ask.

 

 

CSS Student Tax Submission Guide

Central Sterilization Solutions does not provide tax advice or IRS Form 1098-T, but you can still document your educational expenses for your tax preparer.

 

1. What CSS Does NOT Do

  • Does not issue IRS Form 1098-T
  • Does not determine if expenses are deductible
  • Does not advise on tax credits or prepare taxes
  • Only provides records, not tax advice

 

2. What You CAN Provide Instead

  • Tuition invoice
  • Proof of payment (receipts, bank/credit card statements)
  • Receipts for certification exams and textbooks

 

3. Step-by-Step Preparation

Step 1: Collect Your Records

  • Gather tuition invoices, payment receipts, bank/credit card statements, and any scholarship/funding documents

 

Step 2: Request Your Invoice

  • Email Student Services for your tuition invoice (use the template provided in the guide)
  • Save it electronically and print a copy

 

Step 3: Obtain Proof of Payment

  • Download or screenshot payment transactions to CSS from your bank or credit card app
  • Keep receipts from CSS

 

Step 4: Create Your Tax Folder

  • Label a folder by year (e.g., “2026 Education Expenses”)
  • Include all invoices, receipts, and reimbursement records.

 

Step 5: Meet Your Tax Preparer

  • Bring your folder with all documents
  • Ask: “Are any of these education-related expenses deductible or eligible for tax credits?”

 

4. FAQ – Quick Answers

  • Can I use my invoice as proof? Possibly—your tax preparer will decide.
  • Do I need proof of payment? Yes—keep receipts and statements.
  • Will CSS provide tax advice? No—only records.

 

5. Final Checklist Before Your Appointment

  • Tuition invoice obtained
  • Payment records collected
  • Certification-related receipts gathered
  • Documents are organized in one folder
  • Questions prepared for your tax preparer
