We didn't pay a penny, we didn't even know what the cost was until the form arrived. But let's say you're right. Tax law makes it clear that if you had no out of pocket expenses (here because a grant covered everyone's tuition for this job training program), you are NOT eligible for a credit. TT should detect this very simple condition and zero out everything for credits and skip the interview and form creations other than the 1098T itself. So this calculated credit is wrong, and you cannot override it. To me this is a serious bug in the 1098T processing.
BTW, we've had members of our family go through other grant paid job training classes and never, ever gotten a 1098T for any of them until now.
