This is important tax
information and is being
furnished to the Internal
Revenue Service. If you
are required to file a
return, a negligence
penalty or other sanction
may be imposed on you if
the IRS determines that
an underpayment of tax
results because you
overstated a deduction
for student loan interest.

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 2007 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,
Tax Benefits for Education, and “Student Loan
Interest Deduction Worksheet” in your Form 1040
or 1040A instructions.

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 2007. 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. Shows if loan origination fees and/or
capitalized interest are included in box 1.
