Education
You'll have to manually calculate those amounts.
Example
$10,000 in educational expenses(including room & board which is only qualified for the 1099-Q)
-$3000 paid by tax free scholarship***
-$4000 used to claim the American Opportunity credit
=$3000 Can be used against the 1099-Q (on the recipient’s return) IN YOUR CASE, THIS NUMBER WILL BE $4000 ON THE $13K DISTRIBUTION AND $0 ON THE $6K DISTRIBUTION
Box 1 of the 1099-Q is $5000
Box 2 is $2800
3000/5000=60% of the earnings are tax free; 40% are taxable
40% x 2800= $1120
There is $1120 of taxable income (on the recipient’s return)
