- Open or continue your return.
- Select Federal Taxes and then Deductions & Credits.

- Under Education, select Start or Update next to ESA and 529 qualified tuition programs (Form 1099-Q).

Some important tips about entering this form:
- Enter your 1098-T exactly as is, even if the amounts are wrong (this is common). You'll get a chance to correct this info and enter additional expenses later on.
- Leave blank boxes blank. Don't enter 0 for any blank boxes on the form, as this generates errors.
- Parents: If the student listed on the 1098-T is your dependent, enter the 1098-T on your return, even if your dependent paid the tuition.
- Students: If you're not being claimed as a dependent, enter the 1098-T on your return regardless of who paid the tuition, unless it was your employer. In that case, just keep the 1098-T with your tax records.
