Education

If the tuition was paid in 2018, it was picked up on your 2018 tax return.

Therefore, you would not be able to pick them up again in 2019.

If you had other expenses that you paid out of pocket which were directly related to your education, you can enter those expenses under the "Other Education Expenses (for all schools). 

This will show up as you enter your 1098-T information under the page titled "Here's Your Education Summary".

Scholarships can be taxable if they are used for the following items:

• Room & board
• Travel & incidental expenses
• Any fees, books & supplies not required for classes

 Scholarships are not taxable if used at an eligible school for a degree if:

• Tuition & fees
• Fees, books, supplies needed for classes
• Scholarship or fellowship for services from:
• National Health Services Corps Scholarship Program
• Armed Forces Health Professions Scholarship & Financial Assistance program
