If the parents can't qualify for an Education Credit, the student may qualify by entering the 1098-T on their return.
Students: If you're not being claimed as a dependent, enter the 1098-T on your return regardless of who paid the tuition, unless it was your employer.
Parents' income is not reported on student's return.
If the student paid Federal Tax on his earnings, he may want to file a return in any case.
Here's more info on How to Enter Form 1098-T.
