Education
Form 1098-T is an informational document. It is used to determine eligibility for education tax credits or taxable scholarships. The information is not reported on your tax return. If you are not claiming a credit for Education Expenses, and 100% of the distribution from your 529 was used for qualified education expenses, then you don't need to report your Form-1099-Q. If you don't qualify for education credits and you used 100% of the 529 plan distribution for qualified education expenses in the year of the distribution, then you don't need to enter/report either the 1098-T or the 1099-Q.
