Question

How do I claim expenses I paid for dependent's college. When I fill in the TurboTax blanks MY name is automatically filled - not my dependant's, Is this OK?

The student's name is on the 1098-T but there nowhere on TurboTax form to use the student's name.

If you enter the wrong student, you'll have to delete all the info and start over. Go through the entire education interview until you reach a screen titled "Your Education Expenses Summary". Click delete next to the student's name. You'll then get the "Your Education Expenses Summary" screen again. Click the "Add a student" button.

Your student must have been previously entered as your dependent, in the personal info section.
