Deductions & credits

If you did not pay a penny and the tuition was completely covered by grants, then you would not need to enter the 1098-T on your return at all.  

 

If all tuition was paid by grants, then you would not qualify for an education credit.  Without looking at your return, it is hard to guess why you are seeing a credit.  The best thing to do is to go to Tools>>Tax Tools>>Delete a Form>>click Delete next to the 1098-T.

 

You can then keep the form for your records, but do not enter it on your return.
