I think I have somewhat of an understanding on this annoying 1098-T form thing but I need some clarification. My son had to move back into the home after the covid hit the air. He moved back in in April. He was still was enrolled in school and finished the classes for that term. He took some summer classes and enrolled full time for the fall. So I claimed him as a dependent. I put in the 1098-t information and TT pops-up a message that he will need to file his own tax return. Box 1 has the amount of $10176.58 box 5 has $16045.00 he did buy books of around $1,300. He did not work any paying jobs as he was a full time student. I did file his return and mark that someone else can claim him as a dependent. At the end TT came up with 0 money on the return. No money is owed or received. I have not sent the return to the IRS yet. Is this the correct way of doing this and why did it come up even as in 0 money?
Thanks
