Education

Hello, I have 3 kids in college with 1099-q. Why does turbo tax allow me to put the 1099q on our return and let’s me choose what child it goes for when TurboTax says in its help menu that 1099-q must go on the students return due to the ss number. It is easier this way as expenses are already documented. 

also I read on this thread that you can  have the 1098t on both the parents and the students return to correctly enter the 1099-q if they 1098-t is on the parents return??? 

thanks for your help.
