Under the new tax law, there is no longer a Tuition and Fees deduction.  But see:

Thx. Confusing that TT still has references to Edu deduction for 2018.

We do not claim our daughter as a dependant because her 2018 AGI was 8300.
Should she include the data from the 1098T in her tax return?
Should she or we submit the form 8863 for educational credits?
