The Education Credit calculation done in TurboTax relies on the Taxpayer following the Step -by-Step order.
First entering all income
Entering Form 1099-Q
Entering Form 1098-T and all other expenses and financial assistance.
Completing the ENTIRE education interview.
If done out of order, the program COULD latch onto (too many) expenses for a credit.
If in doubt, type
letme
into the Search-Box
The program will take you to a screen that shows what the program is doing with the expenses and allows you to change the allocation if so desired.
