Is this your return claiming the student as your dependent? 

Did you first enter the 1098-T ?

The screen you are showing me is only for Elementary and Secondary school, so K-12.

That would only pertain to a 529 distribution which was used for K-12. 

You may want to revisit how you entered the 1099-Q, 

this indicates that you may have selected that it was used for K-12 education expenses. 

In the 1099-Q interview you need to select 

"Attended College/vocational school in 2022" 

 

 

 

If this is for College, the 1098-T needs to be entered in the Education section and from there, you can continue to add other expenses which are not reported on the 1098-T.

To enter additional expenses, such as Room and Board  (which can offset a 529 distribution, but cannot be applied to a credit) 

select Expenses and Scholarships (Form 1098-T) and enter the 1098-T 

(if you already entered it, click Edit next to the name f the student which will bring you to a "Here's Your Education Summary" page

Click Edit under Tuition to enter the 1098-T

be sure to select Start or Edit for Other Education Expenses (under Tuition) to enter expenses not on the 1098-T

Next select YES to "Did you pay for Books or Materials to attend school?" to add other expenses relating to college expense.
