If the student is your dependent, you should not be entering the 1098-T nor the 1099-Q into the interview of his TurboTax program. You should be entering the forms into your program first.
If they generate a credit, you get the credit.
If the forms generate any taxable income, the student would claim the scholarship income, and the income from the 1099-Q is claimed by whomever was issued the 1099-Q.
The parent's TurboTax program would report the amount the student needs to claim. That amount is entered on the student's return. Scholarship is entered as earned income on his 1040 line 1. Distribution as "other income" on schedule 1.
This can be done by entering the scholarship amount in the students program in the Education section under Deductions and Credits. Answer "No" to everything relating to a 1098-T until you get to "additional scholarship not already reported' and enter only the amount he needs to claim.
The distribution amount can be entered as "other income" with the description of "1099-Q.
