I have my daughter s 1098-T form. It shows Box 2 and Box 5 filled in. She had student loans for the remainder of her tuition but it does not show that in Box 1.

Do I  Included the loan amounts  we paid?

[MinhT · Accepted solution]

Yes, tuition paid from loans are considered as paid by your daughter.

She can report the actual tuition paid in TurboTax if the amount reported in Box 2 of form 1098-T is not the amount actually paid.

In TurboTax, when filling out your form 1098-T, enter only the amount in Box 2, even if both boxes 1 and 2 are filled.

Under box 2, on the 1098-T screen is a link: What if this is not what (student name) paid to the school? Click on that and you will be given a chance to enter what was actually paid in 2016.
