Education

Thank you but after I entered all of the 1098-T information and qualified expenses on our return, Turbo Tax had a pop up screen appear that specifically stated "(Sons name) will need to file a tax return to include this $1,812 amount of taxable income."  If it would have said that amount would be included in OUR taxable income I would understand but it specifically said his name and that he would have to file it on his return.  That's where all my confusion comes in....  If this additional income should be included on our return where would it be entered because Turbo Tax definitely did not add it to our income.  I just don't want to erroneously report this income.  If it does need to be on his return that is fine because it won't change anything since he only earned $2,000 at his part-time job.  I just don't know where it needs to be entered on the 1040EZ and the only place it seems to have a spot for it is under Education but then it asks for the 1098-T information which I already entered on our tax return.
