Thanks! My box 1 exceeds box 5, so it should not be taxable, but when I enter in the information from my 1098-T, it still counts my box 5 towards the federal tax I owe. That's why I'm wondering if I can mark the box 5 amount as "tax-free employer provided assistance" so it does not contribute to what I owe in federal taxes.
The stipend is indeed taxable, but that is included on a separate W-2.
