Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Hi there!

 

If you have additional expenses when  you are in the Education Section within TurboTax once you have filled in the information for the 1098-T the next section to come up will ask you if you have any additional expenses and that is where you will enter books or any additional fees, etc.  If the amount in box 5 is more than the amount in box 1 this amount is usually the amount that will get added as income.  However, it is a little more complicated when the tuition paid is covering a semester other than the current one.
