Education
1) As @Hal_Al already pointed out, your tax-free assistance maxes out at $5250. The rest of the tuition that your employer paid should be on your W2. So click yes on the tax free tuition and enter $5250.
2) You'll click on that and enter the amount that you received on a W2. If you didn't get a W2 you won't click this.
3) When you enter the 1098-T into the TurboTax system it will automatically enter any excess paid to you over and above your school expenses as taxable scholarships and carry it over for you. That is why @Hal_Al recommended making sure that there were no amounts in the $64,743 that is on your 1098-T that are included on a W2 that you received.
