Education
For parents who are stuck with being forced to claim the American Opportunity Tax Credit despite not having enough qualifying expenses because expenses were paid through 529 disbursements, because you entered info from the 1099-Q and/or 1098-T at Turbotaxes prompting, this is the only solution that worked for me. You have to go back to the Deductions and Credits/Education section and when asked "Did you have any higher education expenses in 2022?" you have to say no. Even though of course you did, that's the only way I found to keep Turbotax from incorrectly claiming the credit. Without doing that, it did not allow me to remove all the information I'd previously entered. Good luck!
