Q. If my child/beneficiary has sufficient educational expenses, including room & board to cover the distribution, I need not enter anything in Turbo Tax for the education section, of my return.?
A. That's correct. The 1098-T is only an informational document. The numbers on it are not required to be entered onto your tax return.
There is no need to enter anything in Turbo Tax for the education section, of the student's return, either, unless there is a chance that some of his scholarships, if any, are taxable.
