Question

I was sent a 1099-misc for a college scholarship. Why is Turbotax considering this as taxable income? Nowhere does it ask if this is for qualified education expenses.

Enter at Educational Expenses and Scholarships, under Deductions and credits (not at the 1099-MISC screen in the income section).

 

If you  have a 1098-T, one of the follow-up questions will be do you have any scholarships not shown on the 1098-T.  Enter the additional scholarship there.
