Yardley CPA Posted April 3, 2017 Report Posted April 3, 2017 Client received 1099-Q for funds distributed from her 529 to pay tuition expenses for her non-dependent daughter (daughter is taken on ex-husbands return). I recognize the client cannot deduct educational expenses for her non-dependent, but how do I account for this distribution from the 529? She provided me with a copy of the 1099-Q and the 1098-T. Is the distribution even reflected on Line 21 or on some other portion of the return? Quote
Richcpaman Posted April 3, 2017 Report Posted April 3, 2017 I just put it to Line 21. If the funds were used for QEEE and Non-taxed, then I show the earnings, and then another line that I subtract out the amount showing a net of -1. That way the worksheets print and the line item gets efiled to the IRS. Avoids any CP-2000's as well. Rich 3 Quote
