There is no line on Form 1040 that will show the info from your 1098-T.   If you received an education credit, it would be on Line 3 of Schedule 3.    The total of the credits on Schedule 3 can be found on Line 20 of Form 1040.     The amounts from the 1098-T will be part of Form 8863.

Q Where (what line) does the info from 1098 T show on the 1040?

A.  The numbers on the 1098-T don't show on the 1040. The numbers on the 1098-T are use to calculate a

tuition

 

credit, 

or sometimes to calculate taxable

scholarship

.  The calculations are done on form 8863. 

 

If a credit is calculated, the non

refundable

 portion goes on line 3 of Schedule 3, then  Line 20 of Form 1040.   The refundable portion goes on line 29 of form 1040 (the American Opportunity Credit

usually

 comes in 2 pieces). 

If taxable scholarship is calculated, it goes on line 8r of Schedule 1, then line 8 of form 1040.
