Entering education expenses for my child to offset a 529 program.  Turbo Tax won't let me edit the number for tuition.  Why not?

    If you entered a 1098-T with amounts for Tuition shown, you can't edit those amounts. 

     

    However, if the amount of tuition on the 1098-T is not correct, check the box that says 'this is not the amount I paid to the school' and enter the correct amount (screenshot).
