Question

1098E

I have my 1098E for my student loan but the borrower's name is my dad.  Do I put this on my return?  II am not claimed as a dependent on my parent's return.

    Only the one legally liable for the loan can claim the student loan interest deduction.  I assume you were his dependent when he got the loan.
