This should be automatically carried over from your daughter's information in the My info section of your return. To correct it, click on My info on the menu on the left. Select Edit by your daughter. After navigating through some screens to determine her dependency, you will be asked for her social security number. Enter it here and it should correct the one that appears on Form 8863 for her education credit. Make sure the box beneath her social security number is not checked, unless "Not valid for employment" is printed on her social security card.
