You can claim education credit if you meet the qualifications.

Even though her form 1098-T is in her name, you enter it on your tax return, if she is your dependent.

 

In TurboTax (TT), enter at:

Federal Taxes Tab (Personal for H&B version)

Deductions & Credits

-Scroll down to:

--Education

  --Education Expenses

In TurboTax Online,

Click Pick up where you left off

Click Federal in left pane

Click Deductions & Credits tab at top

Scroll down to Education and click the Show more dropdown

From there, you can enter your relevant information.

Qualifying expenses include what you paid in tuition and mandatory enrollment fees to attend any accredited public or private institution above the high school level.  Please see the TurboTax blog Deduction for Higher Education for more information.
