There is no line on Form 1040 that will show the info from your 1098-T. If you received an education credit, it would be on Line 3 of Schedule 3. The total of the credits on Schedule 3 can be found on Line 20 of Form 1040. The amounts from the 1098-T will be part of Form 8863.

Q Where (what line) does the info from 1098 T show on the 1040?

A. The numbers on the 1098-T don't show on the 1040. The numbers on the 1098-T are use to calculate a tuition credit, or sometimes to calculate taxable scholarship. The calculations are done on form 8863.

If a credit is calculated, the non refundable portion goes on line 3 of Schedule 3, then Line 20 of Form 1040. The refundable portion goes on line 29 of form 1040 (the American Opportunity Credit usually comes in 2 pieces).

If taxable scholarship is calculated, it goes on line 8r of Schedule 1, then line 8 of form 1040.
