You could file an amendment on your taxes from last year however you are not required to file an amendment to enter the 1098E. There may not be any benefit to you to file the 1098E or it may only reflect a small difference on your return. The student loan interest deduction is taken as an adjustment when calculating your adjusted gross income, or AGI so it is not a dollar for dollar deduction/credit.
