Thanks for this info.
I think I'm with you on the student entering $5,326 because the parent is entering $1,078 for books next to "Books and materials not required to be purchased from the school" - correct? The parents education summary now shows $5,078 for expenses and scholarships on the deductions and credits page. Or, do I have this wrong and the child is entering $1,078 for books and, if so, where? Or is nobody entering the $1,078 for books?
$13,750 scholarship - $12,424 tuition and books = $5,326 on the child return as income
Is it a problem that the child already filed and did not include this income? The child apparently cannot amend until some time in March. I suppose the parent should wait to file after the child amends?
