Tax Question regarding housing benefit for internship

<p>CTScoutmom -
Wait - are you saying that expenses for the student to travel between college and the parents’ home DO qualify as a qualified educ expense eligible for reimbursement from a 529? I thought that travel expenses did NOT qualify - only tuition, required fees, required course materials/books/supplies, and room & board (and, in 2009 and 2010 ONLY, computer expenses). Perhaps I should have been taking more $$ out of our 529…</p>
