Do I need to include 1099-Q?

IRS Form 1099-Q is issued when you withdraw funds from a 529 plan or Coverdell ESA, detailing your total withdrawals, including earnings and basis. When you receive IRS Form 1099-Q, youll need to report this information on your tax return if the distribution is used for non-qualifying expenses.

What is the American Opportunity Credit for 1099-Q?

Can I still claim the American Opportunity Credit if I got a 1099-Q? Yes, but not for the same expenses! You cant use the same qualified expenses to justify both tax-free 529 withdrawals and education tax credits.

Do I have to report 1098-Q on my tax return?

How do I know if my 529 distribution is taxable?

If your withdrawals are equal to or less than your qualified higher education expenses (QHEEs), then your withdrawals including all your earnings are tax-free. If your withdrawals are higher than your QHEE, then taxes, and potentially a penalty, will be due on earnings that exceed your qualified expenses.

What if I forgot to include a 1099-Q on my tax return?

If you missed reporting 1099-Q distributions from a 529 plan, review the amounts and tax years involved. Non-qualified distributions may require amendment using Form 1040-X to avoid penalties. Qualified education expenses offset taxable income from these distributions.
