Deductions & credits

TurboTax does allow you to claim a student who lived away at school.  Unfortunately you answered the question incorrectly.  You should have said the child lived with you all year.   You can say that for the temporary absence of being away at school.   

 

You will need to wait until the IRS has fully processed your return to amend it with a Form 1040X.
