Are SoFi Loans considered “student loans” for tax purposes?
You may receive a 1098-E for your Student Loan account. A 1098-E tax form is used to report Student Loan interest paid by you in a single year. Depending on the amount of interest paid, you may receive a 1098-E from SoFi.
Access your tax documents by logging into www.SoFi.com, navigate to your loans/ account detail page, click on Documents & Statements followed by “tax” documents.

Do you tax the student loan after refinancing it?
Student Loan Refinances are not taxed after they are funded with SoFi. If you qualify for a 1098-E, you may be eligible to claim the interest paid on your Student Loan Refinance on your taxes.
