If I enter different numbers on our returns than what the 1098-T shows, isn't it going to throw a red flag? 

So I just enter any figures I want, what's the point of the 1098-T then?

 

Be advised some people are saying they're not getting the "Amount used to claim the tuition deduction or credit" screen on the dependent’s . The alternate workaround is  to enter $4000 less than the actual box 1  amount, when you enter the 1098-T
