Question

Can I still claim tuition payments that I have made on my child's behalf, even though they applied the 1098T to their tax return?

The child can no longer be listed as my dependent.

If the student is not your dependent you cannot deduct any education expenses on your tax return for the student.

The child can claim what you paid, in addition to what they paid, when claiming the ed credit on their return.
