Education
Tuition at a foreign university is deductible if the school is an eligible school. Please check this link before proceeding.
If your school is eligible, you don't need a 1098-T or an EIN. When you enter the information in TurboTax, tell the program that you didn't get a 1098-T. It will ask if it qualifies for an exception; the answer is I qualify for an exception. On the page headed Where Did [you] Go to School in 2016?, check the box for foreign address, so you won't need a zip code, either. (See the screenshot below.)
You can then enter all your applicable expenses. Be sure to convert to U.S. dollars.
