what section of the tax return do I file a 1099-Q?

[DawnC]

If the 1099-Q distribution was all for qualified education expenses, you do not need to enter the 1099-Q at all.   It is an informational document and should only be entered if the distribution exceeds the education expenses.     Please see 1099-Q reporting

• When you receive IRS Form 1099-Q, you'll need to report this information on your tax return only if the distribution is used for non-qualifying expenses.

If you did use the money for things other than education, see Where do I enter a 1099-Q?
