My daughter has a scholarship that is exceeded by expenses for college and no other income. Does she need to file a tax return. We claim her as a dependent and filed the 1098 - T with our taxes.
I.E. 1098T Box 1 = 15,974 Box 5 = $10,000 . Box 5 = $2,000 for Room & Board which is not allowable for claiming as Educational Expenses.
She has no income.
Does she need to file a tax return or can we skip it this year? I filled out tax return but it was all zero because we claimed her & Turbo Tax said we couldn't file electronically. I'd rather not send 17 pages to the IRS for nothing.
