Education

Thank you for the information. So if I get let's say $9,000 in grants. Tuition is $8,000. The distribution was $4,500.  This would mean I had $13,500, exceeding qualifying education expenses by $5,500.  That would mean I would have to report the distribution.  I already reported the grants with the 1098-t form.  My wife and I are both students who made under $10,000 together in 2019.  This extra $5,500 would still put us under the $24,000 limit.  Would I still need to report the 529 account?  Also, would the 1099-Q form be sent to my grandpa or me or both?
