It's important to note that the tax statements you'll find in the Brightwheel app are always from the year before the current enrollment year. This means, for instance, that the 2023 tax statement will be used for taxes in 2024. To locate this statement, you can...
Log in to the Brightwheel app.
Open the Payments page.
From the Accounts tab, select a student's name to open their account
Click on Statements under the purple balance tile
Click the Your 202X Payer Tax Statement link to open a new pop-up window.
Download or Export the statement.
Use the Total Payment (if one payer) or Paid By tiles (if multiple payers) at the top of the statement to determine the total payments made in the previous calendar year.
Repeat these steps for additional students/programs as needed.
