Johns Hopkins medical graduate student submitted to me the 12/31/21 stub for $39,000, insisting that no W-2 or 1099 is issued for it. Additionally she received a 1098T that shows different amounts, with scholarship greater than tuition by 5K. I put the 39K on Wages worksheet as other income. It appeared on line 7. Now the IRS sent her a letter asking how she came up with the line 7 amount (which also included husband's W-2). Was the 39K subject to social security tax as well? Not sure how to handle a stub-only document.
