Education
This is directly from the TurboTax help topic on 1098-T, Italics & Underline, mine.
To enter Form 1098-T:
- Open or continue your return, if you're not already in it.
- Search for 1098T and select the Jump to link at the top of the search results.
- Select Yes on the Do you want to enter your higher education expenses? screen. This does not come up! It goes to this: Now Let's Gather Molly's Additional Education Expenses
- On the Your Education Expenses Summary screen, select Add A Student.
- Select the name of your student (this could be you, your spouse, or a dependent) and Continue.
- Answer some questions about the student and then you'll reach the Did [student] get a 1098-T from [school] for 2019? screen. Select Yes and Continue.
After answering "Did she pay for books & materials to attend school?" with "Yes" and "Did you take tax-free distributions from a 529 to pay student loans?" with "No", it goes to a Scholarships & Financial Aid page. I answered "Yes" and then put in the 1098-T amount. Then I put in prior year adjustments (from 1098-T form). After all of that, it says that this is income.... because THERE IS NO PLACE TO ENTER HER TUITION!!!!!!!
Where do I put in the actual tuition and expenses????
