Education

@catkik  said "So I reported the portion of the total scholarships that is taxable in income (education area)."

 

I don't know how you did that, separately from entering the expenses??? You enter the 1098-T and the rest of the info and let TT  determine the taxable amount.

 

But, to answer your question, you answer no to that question. It applies to income reported on a W-2 or 1099. 

 

The simple work around is manually calculate the taxable amount of scholarship (I think you've done that). Enter the 1098-T, on the student's return, with box 1 blank and the taxable amount in box 5. Enter no other numbers.
