I amended by 1040 because I received a 1099Q, but the money I received from prepaid tuition went towards tuition and never deposited into my account. Do I need to amend?

No. If the Distribution doesn’t exceed the amount of the student's qualifying expenses, then the distribution is not Taxable and you don't have to report any of the distribution on your tax return. This may sound strange, especially regarding taxes, but the IRS does not request any additional information to substantiate whether or not your Distribution exceeded your actual qualified expenses. Nevertheless, it would be wise to keep a good record of these expenses just in case your return gets picked up for examination.
