Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Yes,

I see that is part of the On-line program, but not asked in the Desktop version. 

 

You can tell TurboTax "Yes" to get past that screen if the following is true:

 

"Generally, you can claim the deduction if all of the following requirements are met. 

  • Your filing status is any filing status except married filing separately.
  • No one else is claiming you as a dependent on their tax return. 
  • You are legally obligated to pay interest on a qualified student loan. 
  • You paid interest on a qualified student loan."

If you co-signed the loan, you are obligated to pay.
