Education

@JotikaT2 - i appreciate the time you took to provide your detailed post... however, under the assumption that the school completed the 1098T correctly, 

 

This is what should already be in Box 1: 

  • 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 

This is what should already be in Box 5:

  • scholarships 

 

These items are already not represented in either Box 1 or box 5 (and shouldn't be represented)

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

 

As long as @Sagnest punched in the 1098T correctly, the error should be elsewhere.  Did you by chance indicate that your child CAN BE your dependent? that could be the source of the error.
