I'm trying to get back to the 1098-T screen by following the directions given by MinhT1... In TurboTax deluxe, I don't see any "Show More" or "Start" buttons. The button next to "Scholarships, student loans, tuition (1098-E and 1098-T)" says "Visit All". If I click on it, I go through screens for education plans, 1099-Q, etc. until you get to the "Did ___ Pay for Books or Materials" page, where "Tuition and enrollment fees" line shows the 1098_T box 1 amount I had entered at a earlier date. The whole dialog screen for the 1098-T is missing. Also on that page, the yes or no selections for "Did you take a tax free distributions from a 529 plan..." are blank if I step back to that page or jump to it. It seems like somethings wrong with the program.

Go through the entire education interview until you reach a screen titled "Your Education Expenses Summary". Click edit next to the student's name. That should take you to a screen “Here’s your Education Summary”. Click edit next to the section you want to change; tuition, in your case.

Details:

To enter your Form 1098-T information (even when TurboTax thinks it has already been entered and is showing $0), go through the entire education expenses section of your return until you reach the screen titled “Your Education Expenses Summary”, then follow these steps:

Click Edit next to the student name.
On the screen titled “Here’s your Education Summary”, click Edit beside Tuition.
Enter the information from your Form 1098-T.

To go directly to the Education section of your return, use these steps:

On the top row of the TurboTax online screen, click on Search (or for CD/downloaded TurboTax locate the search box in the upper right corner)
This opens a box where you can type in “education” (be sure to enter exactly as shown here) and click the magnifying glass (or for CD/downloaded TurboTax, click Find)
The search results will give you an option to “Jump to education”
Click on the blue “Jump to education” link
