Hawaii N-814 required but WHY?? (529?)
Help! Please! Using TT for 2021. Accidentally took out a little bit too much from the 529 because of scholarships. So, there is no penalty on the 529 disbursement because there is a scholarship exemption, but we do have to pay taxes on the 529 interest. Ok, but moving ahead to the Hawaii State form, the box is automatically checked for "report child's interest on parent's return" and I can't uncheck that box. Except that box shouldn't be checked. The interest is not the STUDENT'S to report. The interest is for the PARENTS to report because the parents are the account holders and the parents received the disbursement from the 529. I don't know what to do. I can't uncheck that box on the Hawaii form. Also it seems that if a Hawaii N-814 is filed, the State is going to expect to see a 1040 from the child. But the child has absolutely no income and no interest income. There is no reason for the child to file a 1040. Help, please!
