Education
If you know how much the student needs to report as scholarship income, please enter that amount on the dependent student's return.
If the student is your dependent, you claim her on your return, but the student claims the scholarship income
If the student meets the filing requirement, they need to select "Yes, Someone else can claim me" and "Yes, someone else will claim me".
Below is how the student claims the scholarship income (scholarships not applied to tuition, fees, books, or supplies)
Click Federal
Click Deductions & Credits
Scroll down to the Education section and click Show More
Scroll down to Expenses and Scholarships (1098-T)
Select that you have an exception to not having a 1098-T
You will need the school's information, such as address and school EIN
Continue through the interview saying there was no expenses and simply enter the amount the student needs to claim as "Additional Scholarship" on the scholarship screen.
