You can add the amount you paid out of pocket.

• Enter your Form 1098-T exactly as you see it, even if you think it's wrong. 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.

What if the 1098-T Box 5 for scholarships is wrong (inflated)? NY state Excelsior scholarships came in a year late but since they were on the invoices, I included them in last year's TT, on the "Other scholarships" line. I was told that I could enter a adjusted amount for Box 5 for this year (2019).

When you enter the 1098-T and continue through the interview screens, there should be a screen that asks if any of the scholarships were for a different year (a year other than 2019) you need to answer "Yes" and the amount of the adjustment.
