Im amending my 2017 return to claim my tuition. I have my 1098-T form but didn't save receipts for my textbooks. Will not sending both of these in effect my refund?

You actually do not need to send in receipts for education purchases that are not on the 1098T.

Should IRS audit you they might ask for them however. 

So you can file the Amended return and look for them later.
