Education

You may not need to enter your 529 Plan Distributions.  A 1099-Q (reporting 529 plan or Coverdell ESA distributions) isn't always requird to be entered on your tax return.  If the total distribution is used for qualified education expenses, then it is generally tax-free and nothing needs to be reported. However, you must enter it if the distribution exceeds expenses or if you are claiming education credits.
