Education

is this a private school?

 

does the expense exceed Box 1 of the 1099Q - if yes, there is no need to report it in TT at all.  Look at the instructions attached to the 1099Q and in the 1st paragraph it states 

 

"Nontaxable distributions from CESAs and QTPs are not required to be reported on your income tax return. You must determine the taxability of any distribution."

 

if the expenses exceed Box 1 you have determined there is no tax liability from the distribution.  End of story.  Put it in a drawer and move on!
