Tax Information

How can I deduct my expenses?
ASPD nor Brandman University issue 1098 forms because professional development courses taken outside of a formal degree program (e.g., BA, MA, etc.) do not qualify for a Form 1098-T.

Present all receipts received from ASPD and Brandman University to your tax professional and inquire about IRS Form 2106, and other mechanisms for deducting professional expenses.

Where do I get receipts if I do not have them?
ASPD does NOT issue copies of receipts for payments. 

• Obtain your ASPD payment history through the OnlineClassroom REGISTRATION tab on your DASHBOARD page.
• Obtain your Brandman payment history through your MyBrandman account (www.brandman.edu > Current Students)
