Retirement tax questions

TAD1965,

 

Stipends are a form of taxable scholarship.  You want to report that income on line 8r of Schedule 1.  to do this may require a fudge on the 1098-T form.  I assume the scholarship amount in box 5 is equal to the qualified tuition payments in box 1.  Add the stipend amount to the box 5 scholarship to force the stipend to become taxable scholarship income which does appear in Schedule 1 line 8r.
