Turbo Tax states I didn't qualify for the Lifetime Learning Credit (true) but at the end won't let me submit a "simple" tax return because it says I earned the credit?

Please delete the forms associated with the education credit. 
Form 1098-T

Form 8863

So I don't submit my 1098-T form at all?

No, not unless Box 5 is larger than Box 1 and you need to claim additional taxable income. 

Even then, the scholarship income can be entered without using Form 1098-T.

 

Do you need to report scholarship income? 

Did you get more in aid than what you paid towards tuition, book and supplies? 

Thank you!
