You can enter the form by follow these directions:

  1. Open (continue) your return in TurboTax, if it's not already open.
  2. In the search box at top, type 1098-T or (upper- or lower-case, with or without the dash) and then click the Jump to 1098-T link in the search results.
  3. Answer Yes to Do you want to enter your higher education expenses?
    • If you land on the Your Education Expenses Summary screen instead, you can edit an existing student or add a new one.
  4. Answer any questions that follow. After a few screens, you'll be asked Did you receive a 1098-T? Answer Yes and continue.
  5. Enter your Form 1098-T exactly as you see it. Here are some important tips:
    • If any boxes on your 1098-T are blank, leave them blank. Don't enter 0 (this may cause errors later).
    • If boxes 1 or 2 on your 1098-T form are wrong, enter those amounts anyway. Then click What if this is not what I paid? right below box 2 and enter the correct amount of tuition paid.
    • Don't include grants not already listed in Box 5. We'll ask about those later.
