Non-dependent education expenses

Received a 1099-Q for a withdraw from qualified 529 account for my adult non-dependent son.  All of this withdraw was used for education expenses. I am able to enter the 1099-Q into TurboTax.  I unable to enter education expenses for the non-dependent.  The program is showing I need to pay tax on the withdraw.  Any help on how to rectify this situation?

Non-dependent education expenses

If the funds were used for educational expenses, you can delete the 1099-Q entry.  Unfortunately, TurboTax does not allow the entry of expenses for non dependents.
