I have a student loan that is in my Dad's name - the 1098E has his name on it. But I pay for all of the monthly payments. Can I file this or should he?

Generally that person's name appears on the loan is who can claim the interest. If your dad's name and social security is on the 1098-E then he would be the one eligible to claim the interest.

Is that still the case if I am the one who is making the payments? It's my dad's name and social security on the 1098-E, but i make the payments. Can my dad still scaim this?
