Do you list the payments you make towards a student loan in the Expenses and Scholarships area. I did not get a 1098T. I graduated in 2018,

These are continuous payments that I make monthly towards my student loan debt.

Student loan payments are not entered on a tax return.  Only the interest on the student loan can be entered on a tax return.

 

To enter student loan interest paid -

  • Click on Federal Taxes (Personal using Home and Business)
  • Click on Deductions and Credits
  • Click on I'll choose what I work on (if shown)
  • Scroll down to Education
  • On Student Loan Interest Paid (Form 1098-E), click the start or update button

Or enter student loan interest in the Search box located in the upper right of the program screen. Click on Jump to student loan interest
