How do I override Turbotax requirement to enter a 1098T
I have a daughter attending University of London Royal Holloway and would like to use the American opportunity tax credit. The university does qualify per the IRS guidelines as it is a DAPIP school that participates in the US Federal student loan program and is listed on their site (has a OPE ID00908600). Royal Holloway, University of London does not have an IRS Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) which is required to complete the 1098-T form. The IRS indicates that a student can claim the credit without the 1098-T form if the university does not provide the form (see q19) https://www.irs.gov/credits-deductions/individuals/education-credits-questions-and-answers. So, my question is how do I override the requirement in Turbotax so I can take the credit?
