the online version is now fixed in that there is now a room and board section. however, it is not calculating correctly. the equal numbers 1098-t andd 10990q do not cancel each other out. it is creating a taxable event. the problem seems to be the number that is in the earnings section of the 1099-q. that is creating the taxable event . if you put the entire amount in 3. basis, then there is no taxable event. at this point, I'm giving up and deleting the sections entirely since you don't have to report 1099-q and 1098t if all the distribution from 1099-q is for qualified education expenses, which it is.
