Should I remove my student loan from my taxes if my student loan was in deferment?

[Hal_Al]

It doesn't matter. The student loan is just used for the student loan interest deduction (adjustment). If you do not get a 1098-E showing you paid interest, there is nothing to enter.  You can still use the free edition of TT, when you have student loans (but not when you are claiming a tuition credit).

On the other hand, if you remove it this year, it's easy enough to add it back in future years, you just won't get a reminder from TT.
