    After entering the first 1098-T, you will be asked if the student attended another college.  Answer yes and you will be allowed to enter the 2nd 1098-T.  If both 1098-Ts are for the same school (that is unusual), then  combine the amounts for each box and enter only one 1098-T.

     

      Here's a post on the five main points on the  1098-T:

    Combine the amounts. The forms are informational.

    @QRFMTOA while you would combine the two forms...... if Box 5 exceeds Box 1 it would go on HIS tax return.

     

    If box 1 exceeds Box 5, it doesn't need to go on HIS tax return as it is for informational purposes and would have no impact on HIS tax return; however, it would create the basis for any AOTC credit YOU are eligible for.
