Where to enter Scholarship Income that is taxable (used for room/board) for 2018 for my son who is filing his tax return?

Enter it on your son's income tax return. We'll ask about scholarships and other financial aid when you get to the Education section in Deductions & Credits.

You may have also received a Form 1098-T with your scholarship or grant amount in Box 5. As you answer questions in the Education section, we'll ask about that form as well.

• Scholarship, fellowship or grant money , if not used for qualified education expenses is taxed as income and gets reported on Form 1040 Line 1 with SCH in front of the line number.
