also, be careful how you enter everything as you mention unearned income and if that exceeds $2200, it MAY trigger the 'kiddie tax' (also depends on her earned income)
just so everyone is clear on your circumstance and what you did..
1) what number is in Box 1 on form 1098-T?
2) what number is in Box 5 on form 1098-T.
(just seems too coincidental that it really was a $4000 difference)
3) what did you enter on your tax return for Box 1 and Box 5, respectively (should net to $4000).
4) what did you enter on your daughter's tax return? (if anything)
