Education

If you enter the 1098-T first, the program seems to default to 10,000 for the possible Lifetime Learning Credit. 

After you enter the forms, continue through the education section and answer ALL the interview questions. 

You'll know your through when you get to "Maximize my Education Tax Break"

After the program makes the calculation, GO BACK to "Education Information" on the "Here's Your Education Summary" screen, re-answer the questions until you get to the last screen will show what is being allocated to a credit. If you are eligible for, (and wish to take), the American Opportunity Tax Credit, change the amount to 4,000.
