Education

First, your son should be listed as a dependent on your return.

If he is not listed as a dependent you can't add his 1098-T. The person who claims the student will claim the Education credit.

Delete the 1098-T that is showing you as the student and add a new one.

  1. Go to Federal Taxes,
  2. Go to Deductions and Credits.
  3. Scroll down to Education and click show more.
  4. Scroll down to Expenses and Scholarships (Form 1098-T) and click Revisit.
  5. Answer Yes for the question if you received a 1098-T.
