Do I still qualify for the 1098-t form?

I had talked to my counselor before the summer and she suggested that I enrolled in my nearest community college as a freshman in high school to take free college courses over the summer. I filled out the special form and eveeything, but I wasn't able to enroll in any classes so I just forgot about it. But today, I got an email from the admin saying that I had to provide some documents in order to get my 1098-t form. I did a little bit of research but I am still wondering if I still get the form because I never payed anything to them or was even a student.

Hi Ariana!

If you never officially enrolled in classes or paid any tuition, you most likely do not qualify for a 1098-T form. The 1098-T reports payments made for qualified tuition and related expenses, so in your case, there would be nothing to report.

The email have been automatically sent to those submitted enrollment forms. I would suggest contacting the school directly to ask about why they are requesting documents and explain your situation to them.
