You may have gotten a 1099-E for the interest you paid.

 

Where do I enter student loan interest (Form 1098-E)?

Here's how to enter your student loan interest. Follow these instructions whether or not you received a 1098-E from your lender:

  • Open (continue) your return in TurboTax if you don't already have it open.
  • Search for 1098-E (upper- or lower-case, with or without the dash).
  • Select the Jump to link in the search results.
  • Answer Yes to the question Did you pay any student loans?
  • If you land on the Here's your 1098-E info (or Here's what you paid in student loan interest)screen, you can either edit an existing payment or add a new one.

Follow the onscreen instructions.
