So I confirmed that in Personal Info and Info Wks that my high schooler is listed as a dependent. The problem I am running into is that if I delete the 1098-T for her (we did not receive one since she did not incur any tuition expenses in high school), it automatically changes the Dependent Wks/Student Info Wk to a student status of "no" to was she a student in 2021 (question 1) and "not applicable"/box g to question 2, what kind of school she attended in 2021. If I manually override question 1 to "yes" and question 2 to "high school", it adds my daughter back as a reference in the Expenses and Scholarships/Your Education Expenses Summary, but lists the school as blank and status as "less than half-time". If I edit that entry, I add the high school name and say no to receiving a 1098-T, it now lists the school name, but still shows as "less than half-time". What's more, it adds a 1098-T form for her (even though I said "no" to getting one), which does say "no" for whether a 1098-T was received. So I guess my question is what is the correct set-up for a high schooler (that did not take any college level classes). Is it "no" / "g-not applicable" to questions 1/2 in the Dependent Wk/Student info Wk, no form 1098-T and no listing in Expenses and Scholarships/Your Education Expenses Summary or is it "yes" / "high school" to questions 1/2 in the Dependent Wks/Student Info Wk, with a 1098-T form saying "no" to receiving a 1098-T and "less than half-time" status in the Expenses and Scholarships/Your Education Expenses Summary? As an aside, we don't qualify for the EIC because our income was too high but I still want to make sure my dependent is accurately entered.
