Hello,
If I leave the box 1 empty in my son's return and just put all scholarships in box 5, where do I actually enter his tuition expenses? I am thinking since my son had a job he could file as independent and hopefully can get the educational credit himself? Here is his numbers: w2-$4500, 1099Nec $3000, tuition(box1) $6500, all scholarships (box 5) $28500. I tried to leave box 1 empty and put only box 5 in the 1098T, but then I couldn't figure out where else to enter his tuition so he can get the edu credit.. Am I getting something wrong?
Thank you so much for helping!
