I had this same issue, and made several trips to the grad studies office to get it squared away. I'd encourage you to find out how the sponsor letter/funding process works at your university, know the people by name and follow up with them each year.
For my university (UC) it works like this:
There is a grad fellowship analyst who I submit my sponsor letter to, then she submits the letter to the billing department who will "rebudget" the account showing that my tuition is paid, and then an invoice for the tuition is sent to the SMART office.
This quarter, by mistake the fellowship analyst had not sent over the sponsor letter to billing.
