1098T Scholarship Information
I received a 1098T from the university showing $45,825 (box1) in paid expenses. This amount is what I paid. It does not include expenses covered by $15,000 in scholarships reported in box 5. Total tuition expenses were $60,825 from which the scholarship was deducted. I have taken taken distributions from the 529 plan to cover the amount I owed $45,825. This is reported on my 1099Q.
When I enter this information in Turbotax, it is adding the scholarship money to my taxable income even though the scholarship money was used entirely to reduce my tuition expenses. I have noticed this on my current 2023 taxes and my 2022 taxes - which I now need to amend. How should this be reported and how do I get help from Turbotax to fix their error on 2022?
