The best thing is to create you own list. It is always good to double check qualified 529 for Room and Board expenses along with Qualified Education Expenses - Internal Revenue Service to be prepared for the coming year and list your true expenses for this tax year. You should keep your qualifying expenses with your tax paperwork. The IRS sometimes ask to see them.

Are you wanting to know how much you can contribute to 529 plan? It depends on your state. There is no federal deduction for contributing to a 529 plan, but some states have a credit.
Or are you asking about education credits?
Your question is not clear.
Did you mean maximum 529 distribution (withdrawal)? That not only depends on how much expenses you have (tuition, fees, books, a computer, room & board) but also on how much scholarship you have and whether you are eligible for a tuition credit and which credit.
There are three things you can do with your Qualified educational expenses (QEE):
Neither. I want to see of the amount I withdrew this year, how much more I could have withdrawn without penalty. is there a form somewhere that shows how I much I withdrew and how much my expenses are?
Thanks. I want a summary showing what I withdrew and what my expenditures totaled - and therefore I could see what is remaining that I could have withdrawn. Is there not a schedule that shows this like there is for rentals - schedule E ? If so, what is it called and where do I find it?
Q. Is there not a schedule that shows this?
A. No. Look at the student information worksheet, that might help. There's also a 1099-Q worksheet.
It's probably best done manually. The formula is: Total expense minus amount of tuition used for the education credit (usually $4000) minus the amount allocated to any scholarship (to keep the scholarship tax free) equals the amount you can withdraw from the 529 plan.
Room and board is only a qualified expense for the 529 plan, not the tuition credit or tax free scholarship. Having the student treat some of his scholarship as taxable income can free up expenses for the credit or 529. Students won't actually pay any tax on scholarship income until their total income reaches $14,600.
Thanks. I didn't see the student information worksheet though.
