Instructions on how to access the 1098-T form are summarized below:
Students who have accessed Vangent TRA in the past:
If you have accessed the 1098-T information via the Vangent TRA website previously,
your user name and password are still valid. If you do not remember your user name
and/or password, please click on the "forgot your password" or "forgot your user ID"
links. If you do not remember either one, please select the "forgot your user ID"
option first — you will be asked to provide your e-mail address and answer a security
question. Then click on the "forgot your password" link. A temporary password will
be sent to you.
- Log-in: https://tra.maximus.com/
Fill in the User ID and Password that you set up when you were a first time user.
- After you log in, you will have three "options."
a. You can change your 1098-T data (this allows you to update your address, but you
will not be able to update any other information).
b. You can request a replacement copy of your 1098-T by mail (please only use this
option if you do not wish to download your form).
c. You can view/print the 1098-T for your records.
Students who are First Time users:
If this is the first time you are accessing your information on-line, you will need
to register with Vangent.
- Click on the "First Time Students" link to set up your account. You will be asked to provide your first and last name — then you must provide either
your campus ID number (when providing your campus ID number, you must put a leading
capital "W" in front of your number — i.e., W12345678). You may also use the last
5 digits of your social security number instead of your Winthrop ID number to set
up your new account.
- Select a user name. Once that is complete, you will receive an e-mail from TRA Customer Service with
a temporary password and a link to complete the setup of your account. Please allow
about 1-2 minutes after you receive your temporary password before you try to log
in to allow their system to synchronize.
- Set up a security question and select a new password. Once that is done, you will be directed to the log-in page where you will need to
enter your username and new password.
