Get your taxes done using TurboTax
No, I meant 1099-Q (or I suppose some sort of 1099) from the larger donors at least. Unless I pay the spring tuition in 2022 (since 2 scholarship checks that came in late were turned over to the school and applied to spring tuition), Box 5 will be zero. If I do pay the spring tuition (just in case she gets 1099s for the scholarships, I want the year to match up with the expenses they're being used for), Box 5 will have less than $3000 in it, and the tuition, fees (and I assume digital textbooks the school put right on the fall bill) I will have paid in 2022 will be almost $14k (where are federal student loans accounted for? I know they count as our money for AOTC, so I assume they won't be in Box 5, but will they be deducted from Box 1?). So there wouldn't be any taxable part, even if they DID include the scholarship checks that she cashed but told them about in Box 5.
I looked at last year's return (didn't save the changes), and only saw questions about the 1098-T boxes in the interview, nowhere to enter scholarships that weren't on the form. The AOTC part asks about expenses, but limits you to $4000?
