1098-T / AOC Tax Credit Questions

<p>@mathmomvt… we actually paid $1079.40 to the school. It was for a required summer class which was $890 and the remainder was for miscellaneous fees that my D owed (fees that are not considered QEE)
Out of $14603 of scholarship, only $3570 of that was a scholarship from the school, which had to be used on tuition only. The other scholarships can be used on any other expenses listed in the COA.
NONE of the scholarships were paid directly to us - they all went through the school.
We spent a lot on travel because my daughter has clinicals and has to drive pretty far to get there & back. But I didn’t think that was considered a QEE.</p>

<p>I hate to ask another dumb question but my head is spinning at this point.
On my D return, I have to pay the difference between the scholarship and tuition, right?
$14603 - $8151 = $6452.
I am taking the AOC for the $890 we spent on summer tuition. My D has to pay taxes on the $890 too, correct?</p>
