how to make part of 1099-Q distribution taxable to take full American Education Credit?
My child has Tuition expense of 55k in Box 1 of 1098-T and 28k in scholarship in Box 5. The 529 distribution amount was 27k (1099-Q). Additionally there was $500 in books that was paid outside of the 529 distribution. TT currently only calculates an AOC credit of $500 because we cannot "double dip" to use the same tuition expense of 27k both as a tax-free distribution and as the Qualified Educational Expense to claim the American Opportunity Credit.
How do I make $3500 of the 1099-Q distribution taxable to claim the full AOC?
Thanks
