Education

In this case, the 1099-Q was issued to the PARENT and the software DOES guide you to enter the data in such a case.  The EDIT button to the right of the students name that LOOKS like would edit the name and the address is ACTUALLY.....

the (hidden) section of the TurboTax program where college expenses CAN be entered. 

PS - I went back into the program and deleted all 1099-Qs which also winds up resulting in the same result.  I guess one would just have to retain the paperwork rather than entering everything into TT that way.
