Get your taxes done using TurboTax

No, there should not be a deduction associated with the Form 1099-Q entry. I suggest you look at your Schedule 1 where you will see the income reported on line 8(z). You shouldn't see a deduction for that anywhere else on that schedule, and that is the only place such a deduction would show up on your tax return.

 

It is possible you a seeing where the education plan distribution is being matched with your room and board expenses listed in the section where you enter your Form 1098-T. To the extent you use your education plan money to pay for room and board it is not taxable. But that is not a deduction listed on your tax return.

 

To view your form 1040 and schedule 1 to 3:

 

  1. Choose Tax Tools from your left menu bar in TurboTax Online while working in your program
