As David says, and I tried to make clear,
the 1098-T DOES NOT GET ENTERED a second time on the student's return.
Enter the 1098-T in your program, then follow the directions your program tells you in regards to what the student needs to claim, if anything.
On her return:
YES- 1.Put her W2 because it is more then $400 of earned income.
NO- 2. Put 1098_T with all original numbers.
Enter any income your program told you to enter for the student
Do not enter the 1098-T in the student's tax program
Just enter the "additional scholarship" that your program told you to enter on her tax return
I used the excellent KrisD15 guidance:
1. If the student is your dependent, you enter all the forms (1098-T, 1099-Q) in your program so that TurboTax can do the math.
2. answered above
3. Yes, if you enter the 1098-T you enter ALL the expenses, books and all, room and board too.
Once you're done, your TurboTax program will issue instructions about what the student needs to claim (if anything)
The student may never need to enter the 1098-t on their return even if they need to file
4. Right, again, you enter it (the additional scholarships) so TurboTax can do the math, but if they are taxable, TurboTax will tell YOU in YOUR program that the student needs to file.
Yes, just enter the income she needs to report as scholarship income
