Keep receiving "Let's make sure everything is accurate" errors for 1098-T after entering "Amount Actually Paid" for tuition.

My 1098-T form does not have any posted tuition for my Spring 2016 semester, but I did pay tuition using the scholarship amount listed on the form. I entered the actual amount paid in the additional box on the 1098-T form, but now it keeps reporting for me to fix errors on my form, despite the form saying that "Box 1 should be blank."

This error occurs when you do not check the "At least half-time student" box on your 1098-T return.
