Get your taxes done using TurboTax

If the loan is in your name and you are making payments on the loan, you can claim the student loan interest deduction even if your son is no longer your dependent.

You claim the deduction by entering form 1098-E in Federal Taxes > Deductions & Credits > Education > Student Loan interest paid. When TurboTax asks Whose name was the student loan in?, you list yourself.
