You get to choose who gets access to each of those specific items. This access can be granted or revoked at any time.

    1. Log into the E-Bill Suite.
    2. Click on "Authorized Users." (This will bring you to the authorized user page.)
    3. Click on "Add Authorized User" and enter the email address of the person you wish to be able to see your bill.
    4. Answer the next three questions using the 'Yes' or 'No' radio buttons:
      1. If you want the authorized user to view your bill
      2. If you want this person to view your 1098-T statement
      3. If you would like to allow this person to view your payment history
    5. Click "Continue".
    6. Carefully read the 'Agreement to Add Authorized User' and check "I Agree"
