Education Expenses/Credit
I attempted to fill out the Education deduction for my daughter. She goes to an established university, Stephen F. Austin, and received a 1098T. I filled in the data from the form and got a message saying that Her education assistance counts as income because her education assistance exceeded her education expenses, the money was used for nonqualified expenses, or she was not enrolled in a certificate or credential program at an eligible school. Box one, payments received for qualified tuition and related expenses, on the same for was $8939. Her grant amount was $3750. How is $3750 greater than $8939?
