1098-T

I am claiming my 20 yo daughter on my taxes as a dependent. She is a full time college student. I am filing a second return on her behalf because she worked at Pizza Hut and made $2500.00. When doing her taxes it asks if she had any higher education expenses like a 1098-T. She did receive one with the amount of $11,339.00. Do I not put that on my taxes or do I put it on hers? I pay for all her college expenses but the 1098-T is in her name.

On her tax return you would answer NO to the question for receiving a Form 1098-T.  The Form 1098-T is entered on your tax return since you are claiming her as your dependent.
