Here's how to enter your 1098-T in TurboTax:

 

  1. Open or continue your return
  2. Select Search and enter Form 1098-T
  3. Select Jump to form 1098-t

 

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

Please see this TurboTax help article for more information.
