Filing amended return for 2018 to include 1099-q and Turbotax is not consistently accepting room and board
We mistakenly did not include 1099-q for our 2018 taxes. I am not filing an amended return. We have 2 1099-q, one for our daughter who we claimed as a dependent and one for our son who we allowed to claim himself as a dependent. When I enter the 1099-q and the related expenses, we get dinged for excessive distribution because turbo tax say we cannot deduct the education expenses because of our income. We are not trying to 'deduct expenses' but merely reflect the expense match our 529 distribution. For our son, we get an easy request to enter the expenses and they offset the 529 distribution so no issue. How can I reflect that we had the expenses to match the 529 distribution for our daughter so we are not paying tax on an excess distribution that we really did not have?
